art and antiquities theft  

Definición

  • Most nations have placed some kind of sovereign claim on their archaeological heritage. In nations with strong patrimony laws, it is illegal for an unauthorized individual to excavate or own antiquities (which are in effect taken into state ownership); in those with less stringent legislation, it is legal to own antiquities but not to export them.
