National Museum receives Philippine archaeological specimens from the University Of California Los Angeles; hosts book launch of Indigenous Archaeology In The Philippines: Decolonizing Ifugao History

via Philippines Graphic, 27 July 2022: The National Museum of the Philippines hosts events to welcome the return of Philippine archaeological materials from the US and the launch of Prof. Stephen Acabado’s book, Decolonizing Ifugao History.

The National Museum of the Philippines hosted two important events last July 21—the turnover of Philippine archaeological specimens from the Fowler Museum of the University of California Los Angeles and the launching of the book Indigenous Archaeology in the Philippines: Decolonizing Ifugao History.

These specimens were believed to be brought out of the country in the 1970s by no less than Dr. Robert Fox and Dr. Eric Casino of the Anthropology Division.
