"Dutch to return Ghana king's head

The head of a Ghanaian king executed by Dutch colonists in the 1830s is to
be returned to its homeland for burial, say authorities in the Netherlands.

In 2006, the University of Aberdeen in Scotland returned to New Zealand the
preserved heads of nine tattooed Maori tribesman seized in the 19th Century.

The same year, Britain's Natural History Museum returned the remains of 18
indigenous people taken from Australia.

There is a documentary, "Give Us Our Skeletons", which is well
worth viewing. The northern Europeans had a whole industry of
collecting First Peoples' skulls. This wasn't really science, which
of course bones can be useful for, it was basically just idiotic
racism. They were trying to prove that Sami in this example were
inferior to the 'white' Eurons.
