"We found some cool artifacts in one of our colonies. Shall we take it and bring it to you?" The British Museum: @FreskyHistory I assume that's a rhetorical question.

"Is there a reason that you can't return any artifacts to their original owners?" The British Museum: @FreskyHistory You just don't get it, do ya? You don't.

"What happened to all those other ancient sites father?" "Well Timmy the people at the time let them rot, tore them down, took all the valuable metals, and even turned a few mummies into jerky for some reason" | /r/HistoryMemes

Britain is just "borrowing" all the stuff in its museums lol Actually British archaelogists helped preserve a lot of history The artifacts were often seen as worthless in their countries at the time, thus they were usually aquired without force or objection While seen as worthy today the saved artifacts are a legacy of both their originating culture and the museum's dedication to preserving history
