UCLA’s Fowler Museum permanently returned seven Asante objects to Ghana, following a request from the Manhyia Palace Museum. The university described the objects as taken from the Asante kingdom during British colonial wars and said the return was voluntary and permanent. Returning cultural property supports cultural authority and access; the small group is part of a much larger dispersal of Asante heritage.
