I enjoyed reading this article and wondered why nobody had written it earlier. New enough and long enough. Neutral and encylopedic. Copyvio exceedingly unlikely as Earwig shows 3.8% chance. First hook (ho ho ho!) has a reliable source, as does the second. I personally find the second far more interesting as it shows our globalised world, and museum repatriation has been a mainstream topic of debate in recent times. QPQ done.
