A co-worker just came in and said that she heard on NPR that
the Guatemalan Government was making a request for the return
of some objects from a recently opened Mesoamerican art exhibit
opened at Boston Museum of Art.  Apparently they are claiming that
the objects are from looted contexts and should be returned.
Does anyone on list have more information about this.
