The United Kingdom (UK) is reportedly sending some of Ghana's "crown jewels" back home, nearly 150 years after "looting them" from the court of the Asante king. According to the BBC, a gold "peace pipe" is among 32 artifacts returning to the African nation under long-term loan deals. While the Victoria & Albert Museum (V&A) is lending 17 pieces, 15 are being sent from the British Museum.
