Yale to Return Machu Picchu Artifacts

摘要

Ending a bitter dispute, Yale University will return to Peru thousands of items excavated from Machu Picchu by 20th century explorer Hiram Bingham. In an agreement signed 11 February, Yale and the Uni-versidad Nacional de San Antonio Abad del Cusco said they would create a new museum and research center in an Inca palace in Cusco, Peru, to display and house thousands of artifacts, including pottery, stone tools, and human bones.
