Venezuela Indians: Germany must return sacred rockPemon Indigenous commute on a bus toward Germany's embassy in Caracas, Venezuela, Thursday, June 21, 2012.  Representatives of Venezuela's Pemon Indian tribe staged a protest outside Germany's embassy to demand the immediate repatriation of a rock they call the "Kueka Stone,” which is on public display in a Berlin park. A faction of Pemon Indians say the rock is an incarnation of their grandmother and they believe that the 1997 removal of the artifact by a German artist has resulted in natural disasters including a mudslide that killed thousands.
