During the colonial era, thousands of human remains of indigenous peoples were plundered from their graves worldwide. Remains of Australian Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islanders also found their way into German museums and universities, where they were misused for racist research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to their beliefs, the souls of the ancestors can only find peace once their remains are laid to rest in their homeland’s soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CS4art<\/strong> is frequently called upon when it comes to these special cases. Over the years, Kai Nissen<\/strong> has built up extensive expertise and an extensive network. Acting on behalf of the Australian government, he is typically present from the initial inspection onward, discussing the best possible packaging solutions.
