• Resumen

  • The repatriation of the illicitly traded Maenad mosaic (so-called Gypsy Girl of Zeugma) has staged a big drama between Turkey and the United States but the case involves several issues such as: 1) claims over ownership and protection, 2) criminological aspect, 3) ethical issues and 4) power of open dialogue and the instruments available to aggrieved parties. Building upon the scholarship on the antiquities trade debate, this paper aims to discuss the issues outlined above, focusing on the discrepancies between discourse and actions based on the actual case(s). The conclusion will address possible available routes that can help secure the rights of cultural objects.
