Repatriated Mixtec skull bound for Oaxaca community museum, not a national institution
A Mixtec turquoise-mosaic skull repatriated from the Wereldmuseum in Leiden to Mexico's INAH is destined for the Yucu Saa Community Museum in Villa de Tututepec, Oaxaca — a former Mixtec capital. 1,020 residents petitioned INAH to display what they call an ancestor, routing a restitution object to a community museum rather than a national institution.
