Callan Morse, Cultural treasures returned to Larrakia people from British museum, National Indigenous Times, 8 September 2025
A collection of culturally significant objects have been returned to Darwin’s Larrakia people from a British museum.
Thirty-three objects, including spears, spear throwers and a club, were returned by the Bristol Museum & Art Gallery last week.
Collected in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and held in the museum’s collection for decades, the objects’ return marked a significant act of international cooperation and cultural recognition.
