if this is difficult enough at the scale of a family spanning only a few generations, how much more difficult is this when considering nations and cultures over the course of centuries and millenia?

Hmmm... I think that we should separate logistic problems from the general problems of the archaeological heritage ownership...
When we consider the course of millenia we may say, that it is our common - Paneuropean heritage, especially in the case of items connected with people we don`t know by name or language, but only called as archaeological culture remains...
