Islamic fanatics are burning
mummies and
churches in Egypt while the army and police are nowhere to be seen. Yet, unbelievably there are calls in the archaeological blogosphere for the United States to impose "emergency"
import restrictions to expedite the repatriation of unprovenanced Egyptian artifacts back to Egypt. Is this really about preserving Egyptian cultural heritage or taking advantage of the ongoing tragedy to further an anti-collector agenda?
