Trafficking Culture’s encyclopaedia of the transnational trade in cultural objects
Trafficking Culture has recently added a new dictionary section to their website. This dictionary give concise explanations of a huge range of items relating to disputed cultural property. It seems from what I’ve seen so far, to cover a wide range of items – everything from the Euphronios Krater, to the Treasure Act in the UK.
Well worth looking at if you are interested in the subject.
The dictionary is on their website here.
They still need don’t have any entry for the Parthenon Sculptures though…

@elginism You are right, no Parthenon yet. Th number of possible casestudies is staggering and the Parthenon is, as you know, complex! Soon!
