In this image taken in July 2020 and made available by Pitt Rivers Museum, shows human remains on display at the Pitt Rivers Museum, part of the University of Oxford, Oxford, England. Oxford Universitys Pitt Rivers Museum has removed its famous collection of shrunken heads and other human remains from display as part of a broader effort to decolonize its collections. The museum, known as one of the worlds leading institutions for anthropology, ethnography and archaeology, had faced charges of racism and cultural insensitivity because it continued to display the items.
