Toera's homecoming: Madagascar's slain king joins his ancestors after 129 years

What the report says

In 1897, French colonial troops killed King Toera, ruler of Madagascar's powerful Sakalava kingdom of Menabe, and took his skull to Paris, where it remained hidden in a museum for more than a century. France returned the remains last year, and for the first time since his death, King Toera took his place among his ancestors during the Sakalava people's most sacred ritual.
