FRANCE-US-HERITAGE-ART-AUCTION-DIPLOMACY
Photo shows a detail of a "Medecine Man" robe of painted buffalo hide (circa 1840-1850) from the Mandan or Hidatsa tribe of Missouri, during an auction in Paris on December 9, 2013. A Paris auction of the sacred objects from the Hopi and San Carlos Apache Native American tribes will go ahead despite objections from the United States and activists, auctioneers EVE said. The US embassy had asked Paris to suspend the sale of the colourful ceremonial masks, head-dresses and other objects after the failure on December 6 of a legal challenge by advocacy group Survival International on behalf of Arizona's Hopi tribe.
