Abstract

The Association of Students of Humanities and the rector of the University of San Carlos of Guatemala, Carlos Martínez Durán, requested the Guatemalan Ambassador to Italy, Jorge Luis Arriola, to locate, identify and repatriate the remains of Rafael Landívar. Dr. Arriola worked with Dr. Angelo Carboni, parish priest of the Santa Maria della Muratelli Church, Bologna, where the poet's
tomb was located. Forensic anthropologist Fabio Frassetto determined which were the remains, which were repatriated to Guatemala. On March 17, 1950 the remains were buried in the monument built by the University of San Carlos de Guatemala in La Antigua Guatemala.
