Review

"This is an interesting and important book that treats the subject of the return of what may have been illegally removed cultural arifacts to their country of origin....The book is carefully written, well illustrated, handsomely printed and attractive for a wide audience--students, scholars as well as the informed public in the fields of the art history, classical archaeology, anthropology and museum work." David Gilman Romano, Classical World

Product Description

'... an extemely readable and accessible account … Greenfield provides extensive information on international and regional regulations. She goes on to offer fascinating insights about the international art market … For the lay person who needs insight into the legal side of this matter, this book is invaluable.' Current Anthropology

Excellent Compendium of Tragic Stories 19 April 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book, in its second version, includes case studies of 15+ archaeological tragedies. The author and contributing experts document the history of the diaspora of archaeological artifacts from their provenances, the use of these articles in nationalistic and religious contexts, and the struggle for repatriation. This is an excellent book for any archaeologist as it reminds us of the modern context of our work. In addition, students of art history, law, anthropology, and history will find the book useful in its breadth of coverage. I have used this book in curriculum building for undergraduate archaeology students.
