<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kirispupis, post: 8163748, member: 118780&quot;]While I&#039;m not in disagreement to most of Dr. Walker&#039;s post, I do find it somewhat tainted by the fact that one of his colleagues was arrested for the traffic of coins he knew to be looted.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also find some of it to be purely rant, such as the aside concerning the Venetians and Constantinople. After having read through that history in Gibbon&#039;s work, the history seems to be far more complex than simple Venetian greed.</p><p><br /></p><p>The more I&#039;ve thought about repatriating artifacts and international agreements concerning them, the more I&#039;ve realized that one cannot simply draw a line across the issues to fully separate them into &quot;repatriate&quot; and &quot;don&#039;t repatriate&quot; camps. Each is a very complicated case and needs to be debated and judged individually.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
