Several demands for the skulls to be returned to the ground where they were excavated have been made, according to a Finnish broadcasting company, Yle. There are currently roughly seventy skulls bearing the word "pimple" in the Karolinska Institutet's collection. The skulls were transported to Sweden as part of Karolinska Institutet's (KI) racial study project. In 1873, Swedish scholars discovered the remains in cemeteries in Finland, which became known as the Pälkäneskallarna. After approximately 150 years, the Ministry of Education and Culture of Finland is preparing an official request to return human remains stolen from Finnish burial cemeteries and transported to Sweden for race research, as per the reports of Swedish newspaper Expressen.
