The Two Essentials Of Creating Archaeological Collections

Just recently I’ve returned from a trip to Jordan and seen there the duplicate of a war monument from the time of the Bible, well the original is in the Louvre but the site was really inspiring in is located in the fortress of Karaq. If we think about it there are many cases in which items that were discovered in one country end up in museums or private collections in different countries. Reading this abstract from a book published by the University Press of Florida. book title The book deals with the whole issue of cultural heritage and Antiquities trade explaining how precious items of local heritage end up in collections of richer people and istiturions. Recommended reading for the conscious collector and for archeology lovers in general.
