Stolen Hopi Masks: Sacred or property?

It's much more likely a Hopi did the robbing than what you're implying.

IC, maybe. I thought what I was implying was more plausible. But yea, I can't really say. Perhaps I'm trusting too much into the story.

So I need a "white" guy to sell me stolen goods from a "white" guy and its all good in the hood.

True and who gets robbed.

OK My answer I cannot prove those masks were stolen.they may be for sale for general pubic we don't know about that.

Hopis say it was stolen, don't know about the proof part either. They should of had video cameras 200 yrs ago.

Sacred and property, just depends upon who you're asking.

Stolen Hopi masks were sold at a Paris auction house today. The question was are the Hopi masks sacred or property? Bonus points for the those who can guess what happened.

I wonder...is it only legal for "white" ppl to sell stolen culture? Anyone want to pay me more than dollar for a dollar?
