Creation
As part of the INAH Dirección de Patrimonio Mundial, the Returned Treasures Program was established January 1989 as an INAH cultural trust (fideicomiso) created by an international group of philanthropists, curators, and art historians and patrons for the purpose of finding and purchasing Latin American cultural property located in foreign countries other than the Latin American country of origin. The trust oversees the repatriation or rendition of such works back to Mexico and other Latin countries of origin for the cataloging, preserving, protecting, and studying of important cultural property.
