Yale University is to return to Peru thousands of artifacts taken from the ancient Inca citadel of Machu Picchu by a real-life Indiana Jones nearly 100 years ago, the top US university said.
In the following five years, Archaeologist Hiram Bingham took thousands of mummified remains, ceramic fragments, bones and works of art from the site back to Yale, in Connecticut.
The university and the Peruvian government announced at the weekend that after months of negotiations, they had reached agreement over the artifacts, notably acknowledging Peru's title to all the excavated objects.
Under the agreement, Peru is to build a new museum and research center in the city of Cuzco, for which Yale will serve as advisor, where the 4,000 artifacts would be housed after going on an international touring exhibition.
