I have some experience with this topic in real life and boy howdy would some of the people involved in the reclamation here get angry at the words "artifact". It probably makes sense for the game, it seems light hearted and all which is cool, but a surprising number of those "artifacts" are just human remains which are neither displayed - guess that'd be macabre - but also we're just not giving them back.

Point being; the idea that these artifacts and actual human remains were looted is an absolutely fringe position. Sure that comment section goes wildly fucking racist with it but I don't think most people'd disagree with it if phrased just a tiny bit nicer
