Or a gross act of theft?
Or both?
I was reading an article today about what are allegedly the greatest examples of, and I quote, archaeological plunder, and this was one of them. t's the famous bust of Nefertiti. I was intrigued because - a) I actually saw it for real in the Neues Museum last year when I went to Berlin, and b) I've long been a supporter of the movement to return the Elgin Marbles to Greece, which is a similar and celebrated case.
