==Ownership== The governments of Iran and Pakistan soon began to argue about the ownership of the mummy. The [[Iranian Cultural Heritage Organization]] claimed her as a member of Persian royal family and demanded the mummy's return. Pakistan's Archaeological Department HQ said that it belonged to Pakistan because it had been found in Baluchistan. The [[Taliban]] of Afghanistan also made a claim. People in Quetta demanded that the police should return the mummy to them.<ref name=archaeology/> The [[Awan (tribe)|Awan tribe]] in Balochistan also claimed ownership by saying that according to the inscription, the mummy might be a member of The House of Hika Munshi - an Awan royal family and demanded that it should be moved to [[Kallar Kahar]] Fossil Museum (Kallar Kahar is considered the primary settlement of Awan tribe).<ref name=archaeology1>{{cite journal |last1= Romey |first1= Kristin M. |last2= Rose |first2= Mark |date=January–February 2001 |url= https://www.jstor.org/stable/41779601 |title= Saga of the Persian Princess |journal= Archaeology |volume= 54 |issue= 1 |pages= 24–25 |publisher= Archaeological Institute of America|jstor= 41779601 |quote=The Awan tribe of Balochistan, saying the inscriptions proved the princess belonged to the Awan royal family of Hika Munshi, asked that the mummy be moved immediately to the local Kallar Kahar Fossils Museum.}}</ref> In November 2000, the mummy was placed in display in the [[National Museum of Pakistan]].
