Hmmf! Its still all in danger, from Afghan, American a European art collectors. There was a Doco here in NZ which went to NY and tried to talk to some guy who owned an antiques shop and HAD apparently stolen loads from grave sites and and war ridden countries for the past thirty years. The doce team didn't manage to see him, but an employee took some photos for them which showed hundreds of items which he had illegaly aquired. Needles to say that employee was sacked.
But the worst thing was that this antiques dealer was on some board for the preservation of international artifacts. What a GIT!![]()
