The FBI has returned a 500-year-old stolen document signed by Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés to Mexico.
The manuscript page was penned in 1527 and is one of 15 pages thought to have been swiped from Mexico’s national archives between 1985 and 1993, the US investigatory agency said.
The page - which describes payments made for supplies for expeditions - was discovered in the US and repatriated on Wednesday.

Turns out the letter was here…illegally.
At first i thought this was saying that the USGov/FBI stole them, but no, they have just recovered and returned them
