The Mexican Consulate in San Francisco reported that, as a result of its efforts, it was able to recover various objects of pre-Hispanic origin, which were located in San Francisco Bay.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a statement, the consulate explained that the archaeological pieces that will return to Mexico are mostly artifacts made of modeled, smoothed and polished clay, originating from the Mexican Central Plateau and dating from the Postclassic period (900 to 1521 AD).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mexican government considered that these anthropomorphic clay objects are archaeological monuments owned by the Mexican nation as defined in the Federal Law on Archaeological, Artistic and Historical Monuments and Zones.<\/span><\/p>\n

During the ceremony of delivery by Mrs. Susan and Melanie Gunn, commissioned by John and Sandra Gunn, the Consul General of Mexico in San Francisco, Remedios G\u00f3mez Arnau, thanked the return of the objects and reiterated the importance of respecting the national cultural heritage.<\/span><\/p>\n

Arnau also stressed that these artifacts must remain in Mexico for study, conservation and dissemination.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, the Mexican authorities said that the repatriation of these pieces underlines the importance of the voluntary restitution to Mexico of heritage assets that are located outside of national territory.<\/span><\/p>\n
