- Buckingham Palace has declined a request to return the remains of an Ethiopian prince who came to be buried at Windsor Castle in the 19th Century.
Prince Alemayehu was taken to the UK aged just seven and arrived an orphan after his mother died on the journey.
Queen Victoria then took an interest in him and arranged for his education - and ultimately his burial when he died aged just 18.
But his family wants his remains to be sent back to Ethiopia.

Wow they’re literally holding that boy eternally captive! It’s not his fault he was captured and then buried at Windsor. He should be returned to his own country and people. The treasures should be returned as well!! Unbelievable!
No they didn’t
He loved Queen Victoria and they shared a close relationship. He had the opportunity to return but chose to remain the UK.
@@cmoore7518 YThere are accounts that suggest Alemayehu wanted to return to Ethiopia. According to some reports, he wrote letters to his family and Ethiopian officials expressing his desire to go back to his homeland. These letters expressed his sadness and longing for his mother, his wish to see his homeland again, and his hope for a better future for Ethiopia. From an ethical perspective, the return of cultural artifacts and human remains to their country of origin is often seen as a way to respect the rights and wishes of the affected community. Many argue that such repatriation efforts help rectify historical injustices and promote cultural heritage preservation.
WOW VERY DANGEROUS SIR! 😠 😠I WILL NEVER GO TO UK !! 😠BUT THIS WHY IM SO LUCKY LIVE IN SUPER INDIA THE CLEANEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD 🇮🇳🤗 , WE NEVER SCAM!

Wow that's really disappointing heartbreaking and disturbing..he's not an item he was a human being that deserves to be returned to his Family
They literally STEAL our ancestors. THIEVES pirates and scoundrels. They have the nerve to use the words "dignity of the departed???" Their departed are with 👿They STOLE artifacts becay England has no ancient history of their own! Disgusting👿👹👹👿.
I agree 💯
He is dead no point to return
That would equal to acknowledging the crime
Bingo
Well said 👏.
"...looted by Britain..."
Thank you for saying this.
I think it is unfortunate that Buckingham Palace has refused to return the remains of Prince Alemayehu to Ethiopia. He was taken from his homeland as a child and died alone in a foreign country. His family and his people have the right to honour his memory in his ancestral land. The British should respect their wishes and show some remorse for their colonial past.
@@siobhanmckinty2722who lied?
Amen🙏🏾
Do the British not have any remorse for their colonial past? They do. Maybe you ought opening a History book. Transparency is more real in the West than anywhere else, don't be hypocritical, I'd be embarrassing.

God only knows what happened to the young boy and his belongings. I hope he didn't suffer. RiP
Of course has suffered lot, how you can be kidnapped such young age & die without seeing your family, that's trauma & dying slowly inside.
THE BRITISH, THEY KILLED HIM, THEY POISONED HIM,, 100% SURE, WHAT DO THINK, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT ? AND IT IS FUNNY TO HEAR THEM TALK ABOUT HUMAN RIGHTS,,,,,, MAN THEY ARE BRUTAL AND MEAN BEYOND OUR WILDEST IMAGINATION.
He also died aged 18… in a home of royals, with the best foods, doctors and lifestyle. Yet he died before he was 20. Very fishy! Only God knows what that young boy went through.
We know out own history. He suffered a lot, cried every single night cause he missed his family, he lost his parents and so heartless they are they detached him from everything and took him to an alien country as a captive. A very young boy as a captive. Chikane.
Best food??? That is so funny. You think they have the best food? They did not even give him any medical attention when he suffered from pneumonia.
Aside from this, can you imagine how many jewels and other sacred objects they have that don't belong to them? Giving him back would open them up for more returns. I doubt they want this...hence the denial.
Talking of returns, Indians will have to return to Asians 5000+ years of Asian loot alongwith compensation for killing thousands of Asian languages to extinction and mass murder of multi trillions (or zillions?) of Asians.
No they don’t want to disturb the other bodies. Let him rest
what jewels ? what sacred objects that dont belong to them , if you got a play station as a gift from you dubious uncle does it not make it yours ?gifts become possessions you know
@@firsteerrgifts does become urs, but it is not the case if they were looted.
@Siobhan Mckinty i've been there.

They can't even give back a body(remains rather). What a shame!
The evil gene does not go away....
This says all you need to know about the Royal Family right here.
@Vibing nonsense I'm sure he was buried in a marked grave ,just like Elizabeth
@Vibing Thief's logic: Can't returned the stolen slaves because they're not alive. Can't return their bodies because it's just too inconvenient. Can't return the stolen artifacts or jewels because not only were our ancestors' thieves but so are their descendants.
@Vibing so ?
He never really lived in Ethiopia. He spent most of his life in Britain, raised by Queen Victoria. So 🤷♀️
Just a bunch of thieves and grave robbers! we have to bow and they love like Gods at the head of our church in place of God! I cannot believe we allow it
Oh, Buckingham Palace, regal and grand,
I beseech you to hear my fervent demand.
For in your halls, a story untold,
Of a stolen prince, brave and bold.
Prince Alemayehu, his fate unkind,
Taken from his land, leaving loved ones behind.
A captive he became, far from his home,
His spirit shattered, his heart alone.
In Ethiopia's land, his absence keenly felt,
His people yearning, their anguish never dealt.
Generations have passed, the pain remains,
While his remains lie within your domains.
Buckingham Palace, with grace and might,
It's time to set things right, to make it right.
Return the prince, let him rest at last,
His final journey, his memories held fast.
In the name of justice, let empathy guide,
Embrace compassion, let history reside.
Acknowledge the past, heal wounds untold,
Buckingham Palace, let truth unfold.
For Prince Alemayehu, let justice prevail,
A solemn gesture that will never fail.
To honor his spirit, to mend what's been torn,
Return his remains, let redemption be born.
✊🏿🖤👑
What beautiful poetry.
The sadness on the Princes face 😢 he needs to be put to rest at last
They can't even honor his last resting place! These colonisers don't reflect on their sins, still the same as their forefathers!
@@haziq0007 Right. Nothing's changed. They're as evil as the monarchy of antiquity...

Why did he die so young!
Very fishy.. let’s hope no skull and bones rituals took place. I wouldn’t put it past you people.
I have my thoughts towards England on this subject and they’re unspeakable! RIP Little Prince
I personally think the reason Buckingham Palace refused is, conceding to such a request, and agreeing to return a possession as culturally significant as a Prince's remains is going to open the way for past colonies to start asking for stuffs that Imperialist Britain stole, especially those of cultural significance... An example of this is the Benin Kingdom's attempts of trying to get back most of the cultural artifacts the British stole during the 1897 British massacre of the Benin Kingdom.
These are not artifacts.These are someone's remains.
Besides the body there were more than 3,000 artifacts they looted. But here we are asking for the body. It has more significant value for us from any gold and prize possession. As he is son of our beloved king, he deserve a proper burial next to his father.
Cannot agree more. I wish they come up with a better reason ... unbelievable!
Wild
Why do I have a feeling they don't even have his remains😭😢 he was probably buried in a unmarked grave, tossed away like nothing 😩
What possible value could this body have to England?
Trophy 😐
property damage, they said they would disrupt several other burial sites doing that.
what makes this single person that much more important?
@@bloodlove93 he was literally a foreign prince
Big turbo
And yet you never heard of him until now I'd bet, want to guess how many other foreigners are buried in the UK?
This is why Charles is just Charles to me. I understand why they can't give things back because they stole mostly everything.
shush
If they return the prince's remains, South Africa will ask for the return of their diamonds, Egypt will ask for the return of their mummies, Nigeria will ask for the return of their artefacts. It will be a mess. I mean, you can't just go giving stolen items back to their rightful owners. Next the fake Jews will be required to give back all the Palestinian territory they've stolen since 1967. Bruuuuhh
Truee
The family should also ask for the items England looted from Ethiopia, even though they'll respond similarly to that additional request.
They would never do that ,most of the stuff they have were stolen from Africa and India
As a great great grand son of Emperor Tewodros this is heartbreaking. I was so excited few months ago after hearing that there is a chance.
I'm so sorry. It is like they have unearthed those pains. They are so heartless.

Thieves feel the right to keep something they stole they've even admitted to stealing it
That's the "British" (they're not) monarchy for ya...
It is very unlikely that it would be possible to exhume the remains without disturbing the resting place of a substantial number of others... - So the poor Ethiopian prince is STILL a captive and doing the right thing by returning his remains is too much of a bother because disturbing the "substantial number of others" clearly matters more. How awful.
but u want to Egypt to disturb the pharaohs
British army looted our treasures, many artifacts and books because we own these all and they took many members of Ethiopian royal family as war prisoners and poisoned all to death.....the prince was not poor , white man never took someone who is poor ....now is the time to give back our prince and he deserves royal funeral in Ethiopia
Yes thank you Mellisa! It is so sad. I grow up hearing this all things about him and all his families story and always think I wish he was alive like that. Also think I wish I have a power I can bring his remain.
@@innocentfiagbe4386 I was thinking the same exact thing. They have been disturbing Egyptian royal tombs from time in memorial. Stealing and pileging ancient artifacts at the same time.....

It’s a shame. On what grounds are they rejecting this legitimate request?
They don't want to wake the dead
As he’s buried with other important British royals

The satanists in the palaces in London believe they own the world and everything in it. So they come to this and every other matter from that point of view...
The British Empire raped many countries of their precious items. At least in the US we have returned Ramses 1 back to Egypt, along with other artifacts. Canada had Rameses, which they were unaware for, and then ended up in Georgia, USA. Zahi Hawass made a trip to the US to examine the mummy and it was that of a King. It was repatriated back into Egypt with fan fare, and DNA testing proved he was Ramses 1. In my state a lot of things have been returned to the Native Americans. I get not wanting to return certain historic items in wore torn parts of the world where they were stolen from because of extreme religious ideology, that might destroy them, but the Royal Family have stolen a lot of precious gems. My step family who are Burmese said they practically took everything of value even out of religious statues.
Rape is a very violent word, rapture is more cooth!
Simple phrases like 'Of course, no problem' spring to mind.
It's not like he is buried like a normal person he is in a brick vault with other important people who were highly regarded by the royal family since they are on the same grounds.
Simple, yes. "Stupid" is probably more accurate.

Failure to do so would be in gross violation of the basic human rights of this Child Prince and the people of Ethiopia.
England's time of terror around the world must end now.
what ??
Here is my thoughts about your comment:
* The statement that Buckingham Palace has no choice but to return Prince Alemayehu's remains to Ethiopia is subjective and could be considered biased.
* The statement that England's time of terror around the world must end now is also subjective and could be considered biased.
The statement that England's time of terror around the world must end now is also subjective and could be considered biased. The statement is based on the assumption that England has been a source of terror around the world, but this is not necessarily the case. England has a long and complex history, and it has both positive and negative aspects. To say that England's time of terror around the world must end now is to make a sweeping generalization that is not supported by all of the facts.
@animatronic266 is supported by factual history.

Keep the bones of the dead. Return to us the ones that are still alive. Return our young and able. Return also our old and wise.
Colonial past? Abasynia was never colonised.
Tewodros had sent a letter to queen Victoria to request help fighting the Ottoman empire and hadn't received an answer, so he decided to take British hostages. The British expeditionary force was there to take the hostages back, but Tewodros wasn't going out like that.
Many of the artifacts were returned, not all. HIM Haile Selassie was quite at home in London.
Even though at Windsor, it opens the door to the British Museum, so not going to happen easy.
Yep! Britain need to empty the Royal collections, zoos, museums..... & return all that they stolen, whilst they are at it they need to return the power of gold, colbalt, diamond and oil mines back to countries they enslaved and colonise.
Such cruelty!😢
Of course they are not returning him back. They would have to return also his belongings. Outrageous!!!!
Thanks,
So sad. The young Prince is long gone, but finding a way to send his remains back would heal multiple wounds. But it's too much trouble apparently. Not impressed. Why I'm anticipating news from the "Commonwealth" that they will now be breaking off from UK. Can't imagine why. UK not stealing wealth anymore from their conquests but the ignorant attitude apparently remains. Every professional photo I've seen shows so much sadness in that poor child.
The countries of the commonwealth are NOT FORCED to stay….they can LEAVE (Barbados left and supposedly Jamaica is leaving as well…when…who knows 🤷♀️….maybe they are thinking about it 2wice….because China 🇨🇳 is looking to Jamaica……👀 and China pretty much owes most of Africa)…..the UK 🇬🇧 SHOULD FOCUS ONLY ON ITS CITIZENS and FOCUS on the environment…..and become more powerful with other countries…this commonwealth is old school….
Do not want to disturb others resting near Alemayehu yet disturbed the pharaohs? Return what does not belong to you. All. His bones and treasures. That would be honorable (?) Or is that foreign? It sucks.

Perhaps the royal family should invite the Ethiopian family over to visit the grave and to discuss the details? Also, if removing his remains means disturbing others, then perhaps they could track down living relatives of the other people buried there to get their permission?
Its only disturbing because their could've been sexual assault and other forms of mistreatment

Yeah no problem, want us to dig anyone else up?
Yeah, go dig up some dignity and return the prince to his land. After that dig up a spine and a backbone.... then try to find the courage to act like a real king.
In this modern day and age, where there are precise tools available; I would think that it is an excuse. They must be hiding something. A royalty but buried side-by-side with commons/ others!?
They can't, give back his remains because that will mean returning back true royalty. They know what they are doing. Spiritually, it will have serious consequences returning back the remains of the original true ancient royals. They can't, risk that. If he wasn't from the lineage of the original ancient royals they wouldn't hold on to his remains. They probably, sacrificed him and drank his royal blood!
