Museums

The Hjemkomst Viking Ship is actually located at the Historical and Cultural Society of Clay County Museum in Moorhead, MN.

Robert Asp, a guidance counselor at Moorhead Junior High School, designed and built (along with several volunteers) the Hjemkomst Viking ship. The design was based on the Gokstad burial ship and took six years to build.

Here is an excerpt, and the site that explains it all with pictures:

The Elgin Marbles, also known as the Parthenon Marbles, are a collection of classical Greek marble sculptures, inscriptions and architectural members that originally belonged to the Parthenon and other buildings on the Acropolis of Athens.[1][2][3][4] Thomas Bruce, 7th Earl of Elgin, the British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire from 1799 to 1803, obtained an ambiguous permission from the Ottoman authorities to remove pieces from the Acropolis. From 1801 to 1812 Elgin's agents removed about half of the surviving sculptures of the Parthenon, as well as architectural members and sculpture from the Propylaea and Erechtheum.[5] The Marbles were transported by sea to England. In Britain, Elgin was criticised for his actions, labelled by some as vandalism.[6] However, following a public debate in Parliament and subsequent exoneration of Elgin's actions, the marbles were purchased by the British Government in 1816 and placed on display in the British Museum, where they stand now on view in the purpose-built Duveen Gallery. However, the legality of the removal has been questioned and the debate continues as to whether the Marbles should remain in the British Museum or be returned to Athens.
