Anne Lee Dozier recently received an expression of gratitude from the Mexican embassy in her home town of Washington DC for her role in reuniting the 1,200-to 1,800year-old vase with its motherland.
"A valuable witness of our Maya history returns home.
Thanks to the generosity of Anne Lee Dozier, a US citizen, we recovered a classical vessel, dated between 200 and 800 AD. This historical gem will be into the reintegrated @INAHmx (Mexico's National Museum of Anthropology and History) collection to preserve our rich cultural heritage," Mexico's ambassador to the US, Esteban Moctezuma Barragán, wrote on X on June 18.
A story published by the National Public Radio on Friday summarized the unusual saga.
