Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ In the margin of intergovernmental cooperation of Mongolia and the USA, archaeological findings, historic and cultural artifacts, that originated from Mongolia, are being returned. For example, the Ambassador of Mongolia B.Altangerel signed this February 4 an agreement with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office on handing over the properties on a free-of-dispute condition.

Accordingly, the U.S. government is to return Alioramus skull, seized in New York in 2014, Bactrosaurus skull, Protoceratops skeleton and fossil egg bed, Psittacosaurus skeleton and skull, a box of small Protoceratops skeletons and Hadrosaurus skelentons, identified in Utah last year. The findings will be officially handed to the Mongolian authorities this April 5 in New York.
