The University of Aberdeen's Marischal Museum in Scotland returned a headdress to the Blood First Nation of Canada.

The headdress was apparently purchased on the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana in the 1920s. It is one of four sacred headdresses used for a sun dance.

The museum received the headdress as a donation.
