I'd say that returning the remains is a good start.

Classy move
They did the right thing

How would you feel if a museum had the remains from your Great Great Grandfather on display

A good start? Do you want to prosecute people for crimes that were committed in the 1860's? A couple of years ago a museum in Virginia was forced to return human remains, that were looted from an Indian burial mound in the early 1900's, to the Monican tribe. I wonder if the Egyptian government is trying to recover mummies that are on display throughout the world.

No. I want universities--the same ones that are pushing the perpetual victimhood narrative--to stop hiding behind "research" and hand over that which does not truthfully belong to them.

I'd just use them as Halloween decorations. Better the museum keeps them.

Egypt to museums: Return our stolen treasures

Egypt's antiquities chief has teamed up with 25 countries to press their campaigns to retrieve antiquities that were stolen and even those given as gifts, warning museums on Thursday that he would "make their lives miserable" if they refused his demands.
