 Later in 2014, the Museum agreed to turn the scalps over to another institution for authentication.The Museum had not returned the scalps as of 2016, saying there were doubts about the original story of the provenance of the 17 scalps, although they did remove them from public display.The director of the museum in Radebul from 1985 to 2014 was René Wagner; Christian Wacker was appointed director in 2018.
