(seen at Hierogrammate)

Does a market in antiquities aid preservantion or harm it? Since musuem archives are full of duplicate objects, wouldn't it be better to have them deaccessioned and sold off? Since America is a nation of immigrants, don't we have just as much right to the cultural products of the world as the natives of those countries?
