One of the most frustrating ones to me is the moai in the British Museum. The delegation from Rapa Nui a couple years back even offered to make a new one to replace the original, and to me that's an incredible offer. That's a chance to do the right thing, still have an amazing and relevant piece to exhibit, and be part of living history all at once
