Description

Book Synopsis
Investigates the ways that commodifying artifacts fuels the destruction of archaeological heritage and considers what can be done to protect it. Examining archaeological site looting, the antiquities trade, and the ruin of cultural heritage resources, the authors argue that the antiquities market is a burgeoning global crisis.

Trade Review
The looting of archaeological sites and museums has recently been brought vividly to public attention. In this book, many of the world's experts on the subject examine the extent of the problem, how trafficking in illicit artifacts is carried out, and what can be done to save our cultural heritage." —Ellen Herscher, contributing editor, Archaeology magazine
