UNESCO Repatriated Artifacts Around The World
Mapping successful artifact repatriations since the 1970 United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization Convention
This map below shows what the distance between each of these countries involved in the repatriations. What can you tell from this? Given how old some of these artifacts are, and when they'd been taken from their homes, what information do you gather from this map? What does this say about trade? Language barriers or travel? Or how about larger topics, like power, politics, and law?
