澳洲部族掌门人接回先人头骨(附图)
http://www.sina.com.cn 2003/08/04 10:44  北京青年报

  A traditional custodian from the Ngarrindjeri nation in South Australia, is seen during the handover of four skulls of Australian aborigines at a ceremony at Manchester University on Tuesday. The Manchester Museum handed the skulls back to a delegation of aboriginal elders following an agreement between the Foundation for Aboriginal and Islander Research Action (FAIRA) and the University of Manchester for their repatriation. They were brought to the UK a century ago. The remains will be returned to their place of origin in the Australian state of Victoria and to a sacred keeping place in Canberra as part of a worldwide campaign by indigenous peoples to retrieve body parts plundered from graves in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

  本周二,在英国曼彻斯特大学举行的交接四个澳大利亚土著人头骨的仪式上,南澳大利亚州瓦林德杰里族的一位传统掌门人亮了相。在"土著与岛屿居民研究行动基金会"这一组织与曼彻斯特大学达成了将这些头骨遗返故里的协议后,曼彻斯特博物馆将头骨交给了土著人长老代表团。一个多世纪以前,这些头骨被带到了英国。它们将被送回到最初的发现地澳大利亚的维多利亚省以及位于堪培拉的神圣保存地,这是由当地人发起的追寻19世纪晚期及20世纪早期从坟墓里劫掠走的骨骸这一全球性运动的一个部分。
