For centuries, the vast majority of Africa's cultural heritage and historical artifacts—estimated at over 90 percent of the continent's material legacy—have been housed in museums and collections outside Africa, particularly in Europe and North America. This includes masks, sculptures, royal regalia, manuscripts, and other objects made of gold, bronze, wood, iron, and stone, etc., that embody centuries of artistic, spiritual, and historical significance. Much of this displacement stems from the colonial era, when European powers extracted treasures through military conquest, unequal treaties, and coercive trade, sending them abroad for display, study, or private ownership. Many of these pieces—like the famed Benin Bronzes taken in the late 19th century—now reside in major Western institutions far from the communities that created and safeguarded them. African nations, scholars, and cultural advocates have long argued that this situation denies communities direct access to their own history and undermines cultural identity, since key material evidence of past civilizations remains largely inaccessible at home. The imbalance has spurred growing calls for restitution, with some countries establishing new museums and pushing Western institutions to return looted objects to restore cultural sovereignty and historical memory.
