Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal
Abstract
The article argues that the British Museum's claim to the Parthenon Marbles is based on questionable evidence, with the key document, the firman, neither found nor recorded in Ottoman archives. This suggests the legal basis for ownership is weak and potentially fraudulent, undermining the museum's legitimacy.
