Madagascar on Tuesday held a ceremony to mark the return of three skulls belonging to men killed by French troops in 1897, including one believed to be that of a former king. The remains, which are expected to be buried later this week, had been taken to France as trophies and kept, until recently, in the national history museum archives.
