The skulls of three indigenous Ainu people have been returned to their community by a university. The remains, which have been held at the University of Edinburgh’s Anatomical Museum for more than 100 years, were returned to the Ainu Association of Hokkaido during a formal ceremony in the city. An indigenous group who predominantly inhabit the Japanese island of Hokkaido, members of the Ainu community held a traditional service at the university before the formal transfer of the skulls.
