This year, mummified human remains and a sarcophagus are being repatriated to Egypt - sent by an Irish university, which was gifted them about a century ago.
The objects - which date between 100AD and 975BC - are being sent as a gift, which is part of a project led by the world renowned artist Dorothy Cross.
It's a symbolic gesture that reflects the ongoing repatriation of ancient artefacts to colonised nations - many of which were looted in centuries past.
Max spoke to Dorothy Cross about her project, Kinship.
