Why Selling a Naga Skull Caused an Uproar | The Culture Project

In October 2024, a Naga skull from the 19th century was almost sold at an auction in England. But for the Naga people, this wasn’t just any artifact—it was a part of their history and culture. In this episode of the India Today Art Project, Manish Adhikary breaks down why the sale of this skull ignited outrage among activists and anthropologists. We’ll explore the cultural significance of headhunting in Naga history, the impact of colonialism, and why this fight is about more than just one skull—it’s about reclaiming dignity and respect.
