    Ancient artefacts should ideally be returned to their country of origin. I'm sharing here so that more people can see it.

    From Bristol Museum.

    The first is:
    Jar in shape of the maize god
    Clay
    When: Between 650-1,100 years ago
    Where: Chimú culture, Peru, South America

    The second isn't ancient so seems fine to be to be in England. It is:
    Face chullu
    About 30 years ago
    Cusco region, Peru

    Die Chimú opferten ihren Göttern nicht nur hunderte Lamas, sondern auch massenhaft Kinder. Vermutlich, um El Niño zu besänftigen.
