So many artefacts are locked up in vaults not on display only 1 % are on display in the BM and losing the marbles will destroy the museum you must be goking
NO THEY SHOULD STAY WHERE THEY ARE. Elgin suffered a lot to get them over, including years of imprisonment and a delayed shipment. He had permission to excavate. GREECE SHOULD BE HAPPY THAT ANOTHER COUNTRY VALUES THEIR ANCIENT ARTEFACTS and cannot prove illegality. What next? The Rosetta stone?
It isn't the Greeks' responsibility to prove illegality. It is the responsibility of the British museum to prove legality. Which they can't. The Turks, who are known to religiously keep immaculate records, have no record of it.
@@AnnabelleJARankin He suffered a lot because he was a greedy man He wanted to make his own museum and charge a entrance fee .The reason he had financial problems is because he had a pricy divorce. We have had them long enough it's time to give them back to the Greek people .We all know that this saying of the slippery slope happening will not ,Come on Annabelle you know this is the right thing to do ,you can't take a people's pride and keep it in a large room which is like a prison .
@@AnnabelleJARankin realy that peace of scrap paper that was written in Italian by one of his own men please proove to me something that Elgin realy did get the permission from the sultan
Sorry Dominic the parthenon marbles belong to Greece they are I important monument and identity of Greece lord Elgin admiited that he stole them under the laws of that time so no more excuses why they should remain in London
You only know 1 side of the story you want to believe what suits you there was no firman from the sultan just a letter which was not signed nor a imperial logo I told you lord Elgin admitted it in a letter he wrote to the prime minister in 1816
Mr speaker ,that was the biggest loads of lies that l have ever heard .you have some points which are true but l think you should invest some more of your time to research ing the truth .Just to finish off why doesn't the British museum have the copy's and give the originals back to the Greeks were they were born .By the way the majority of the United Kingdom think that they should go back .So why not stop lying and speak the truth instead of bending it to your advantage.
@@AnnabelleJARankin He is bending the truth to his advantage ,l know the history and l know how passionate this is to the Greek people l think you should research the history and if you look deep enough you will come across the truth .

The Parthenon was in that shape because the Turks stored munitions in it, and they exploded. It was whole up to that point.

lord Elgin admitted it in a letter that the ottomans had no authority to sell the marbles from the walls of the parthenon so end of debate

Er NO. Elgin had full permission to excavate.
Permission to excavate on the grounds not the walls of the parthenon no point lord Elgin admitted in a letter sent to prime minister in 1811
@@AnnabelleJARankinHe did not. Elgin is no better than a grave robber.
Don't put London's interest first it's a matter of doing the right thing
The right thing is to leave them there. Elgin brought them over legally - they were happily shipped from Greece by Greeks.
the turks occupied Greece at the time greeks had no voice they did not sell the marbles they were taken from them in those days read the history
