Trinity College Dublin has apologized for retaining the stolen human remains and vowed to work with the Inishbofin community to ensure a respectful return. In 1890, Alfred Cort Haddon and Andrew Francis Dixon took partial skeletal remains of 13 people from St. Colman’s monastery in Inishbofin.
Trinity Provost Dr Linda Doyle said: “I am sorry for the upset that was caused by our retaining of these remains and I thank the Inishbofin community for their advocacy and engagement with us on this issue. We will now work with the community to ensure that the remains are returned in a respectful manner and in accordance with the community’s wishes.
