In a chance discovery, Argentina’s top court has found dozens of boxes of Nazi material confiscated by authorities during World War II.

“Upon opening one of the boxes, we identified material intended to consolidate and propagate Adolf Hitler’s ideology in Argentina during the Second World War,” the Supreme Court Museum said in a statement on May 12.
