UK museums willing to return skulls to Zimbabwe
Several Zimbabwean skulls were found in archives but none belong to Zimbabwe’s anti-colonial heroes. …
In doing a search of its archive, the Natural History Museum did uncover 11 remains “that appear to be originally from Zimbabwe” – but its records do not connect them with Nehanda. These include three skulls taken in 1893, thought to be from Zimbabwe’s second city, Bulawayo, as well as remains uncovered in mineshafts and archaeological digs and later donated.
