Workers disassemble the skeleton of Peale’s Mastodon at the Hessian Landesmuseum before sending it to the USA on October 17, 2019 in Darmstadt, Germany. The skeleton was excavated by Charles Willson Peale in the Hudson River Valley in 1801. It quickly drew the attention of scientists in both America and Europe. It was significant that American President Thomas Jefferson considered the excavations a national affair. Alexander von Humbold visited it on his trip to America. For American patriots it also became a symbol of their new nation’s vitality. The skeleton, following the bankruptcy of the Philadelphia museum where it was displayed, was sold to European collectors, and eventually made its way to the Darmstadt museum. It is returning to the USA for the first time and will be exhibited on loan at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in early 2020. (Photo by Thomas Lohnes/Getty Images)
