Such a powerful story, thank you for sharing. When it is that clear to a child… what a blatant injustice. I remember seeing the beautiful “Elgin marbles” the first time I visited the British museum, then a few years later visiting the Acropolis and seeing where they were stolen from! Looking forward to exploring the links, great piece.

I have seen a few brief investigations, I believe one was An Australian show. The repatriation was being agressively sought by a young Chinese woman. It was very fun to watch
