Perhaps Not Everything is Looted
David Gill has written this post that suggests that not everything in the inventories of dealers associated with the Medici archive was looted. I've heard the same from others associated with the antiquities trade. That makes sense. These individuals dealt with many antiquities over their long careers. It's good that Gill has belatedly recognized as much.
