On August 16th, the British Museum launched an independent security review due to the discovery of missing, stolen, and damaged artifacts, estimated to be around 2,000 items. This revelation has sparked global calls, particularly from China, Nigeria, and Greece, for the return of looted items. The British Museum has historically refused such requests, citing better protection. However, the recent security breach has raised questions about repatriating these cultural treasures. How long will it take for items taken by force or deceit from other countries to finally come home?
