Where were elgin marbles found?
The Elgin Marbles, also known as the Parthenon Marbles, were found in the Parthenon and other structures on the Acropolis of Athens, Greece. They were excavated in the early 19th century by Thomas Bruce, the 7th Earl of Elgin, who later transported them to Britain. The marbles are renowned for their classical Greek art and architecture, depicting various mythological and historical scenes. Today, they are housed in the British Museum, sparking ongoing debates about their rightful ownership.
Why are the Elgin marbles a subject of controversy?
The controversy derives from the different Greek and British views as to who should own the Elgin Marbles. From the Greek perspective, the marbles used to be part of the Parthenon in Athens, Greece and Greece maintains they should be returned there since they are a part of Greek cultural heritage. Britain says Lord Elgin was allowed to remove these from the Acropolis by the Ottoman Turkish government that was in power at the time that Elgin made the request. Therefore, the British legally removed them, even though the Greeks at that time were not consulted. Also these marble reliefs would have been destroyed by now if they had been left in their original place because of the various wars that were fought in Athens since Elgin took the marbles out of Greece. So Britain has preserved the Elgin marbles for 200 years and ought to keep them.
