Permission was granted to take them and they were probably saved from extremely war mongering factions at the time. The display in the British museum probably added to a greater understanding of Greek culture not only here but in Greece and worldwide. There are far more outstanding artifacts in Greece anyway, so just having these benefits all, and probably is viewed by more people ever than would have seen them in Greece.

Just my take, I've seen them, they are very good, extremely well crafted and they display excellent in the museum. Every museum has artifacts from around the world, including Greek museums. Where do you stop if they go back, clear out all museums, The National gallery would be pretty empty and the natural history museum would be pretty low on dinosaur bones and fossils displayed.

Yeah great idea everyone give everything back to where it originated that way people can only learn about their own culture and be shut out from the rest of the world, brilliant idea pure genius.

Your optimism is noted....although the Greeks are unlikely to be instrumental in setting direction or having any influence whatsoever.
