About Me
- Cultural Property Observer
- Washington, DC, United States
- Peter Tompa has collected ancient coins for almost 50 years. He has written and lectured about cultural property issues for a decade. He is a contributor to a chapter on numismatics in K. Fitz Gibbon ed., "Who Owns the Past?" (Rutgers 2005). He has lobbied members of the U.S. Congress and the Executive Branch in an effort to ensure that the small businesses of the numismatic trade receive fair treatment from federal regulators. He currently serves as a board member of the Cultural Policy Research Institute and the Ancient Coin Collectors Guild. He also has been a co-chair of the American Bar Association's Art & Cultural Heritage Law Committee. His advocacy has received notice in the media, including the New York Times, the New Yorker, the Art Newspaper and the Voice of America. He hopes his views as a collector and lawyer will provide a counterpoint to the "archaeology over all" perspective found in most blogs about cultural property issues. This Web page is a public resource for general information and opinion about cultural property issues, and is not intended to be a source for legal advice. Opinions expressed here are the author's own.

So John Howland and Arthur Houghton will not be speaking?
Disappointed that Mr. Barford wasn't included...damn.
Hmm, what does a metal detectorist think I'd say to the ACCP? I have already written my response to their "White Paper". I note that it includes the idea of registering collections, but was disappointed to see they did not develop the theme. Maybe CPO and his metal detecting friends can develop the theme here.
All, I'm closing comments to this blog. This is merely a notice of a coming event and CPO had nothing to do with picking the speakers.
congratulations guys, quality information you have given!!! Caolaidhe
