Download Could many of Africa’s artefacts soon be returning home?
During colonialism artworks that had been protected in Africa for centuries were looted.
To this day, many of them are held by museums and universities in western countries.
But in recent months, institutions in the US, UK and France have said that they will return them.
However, this is only a small number of artefacts.
And it isn’t fully known how many are still out there, or where they are.
So, could all Africa’s looted artworks soon be returning home?
