Elgin Marbles Poll

[Ron Andrea]

I agree it's a dilemma, probably without a solution which will satisfy all. Not only do questions of sale and possession come up, but one might question the standing of the current government of Greece to obviate actions taken by previous governments/occupiers. (Yes, I know, governments do it all the time; that doesn't make it right.) Will/should the current government reimburse the British of care and storage? Will/should the British pay rent? Should Turkey pay for the damage? The Greeks? To whom?

Wherever the Parthenon Marble originals are, they should not be exposed to the elements. if the modern re-constructors of the Parthenon want something to display, they should put up copies.

BTW, the Egyptians are already demanding the return of "their" antiquities.
