Loot, Legitimacy and Ownership: The Ethical Crisis in Archaeology

Couverture
Bloomsbury Academic, 20 oct. 2000 - 160 pages
"The illicit antiquities trade has turned London along with other international centres into a 'thieves' kitchen' where greed triumphs over serious appreciation of the past. Unless a solution is found to this ethical crisis in archaeology, our record of the past will be vastly diminished. This book lays bare the misunderstanding and hypocrisy that underlie that crisis."--BOOK JACKET.
