November 2021. 26 roy­al tre­asu­res of the Kingdom of Dahomey are about to lea­ve Paris to return to their coun­try of ori­gin, the pre­sent-day Republic of Benin. Along with thou­sands of others, the­se arte­facts were plun­de­red by French colo­ni­al tro­ops in 1892. But what atti­tu­de to adopt to the­se ances­tors’ home­co­ming in a coun­try that had to for­ge ahead in their absence? The deba­te rages among stu­dents at the University of Abomey-Calavi.
