Hi to everyone, today I am going to write about a new.

The new that I chosen have connection with my future career, that is, the Archaeology. This new it’s about the return of artefacts and treasures (stolen many years ago in the civil war) to Afghan museum since 2001. These artefacts are around 9,000, but are just a fraction of what has been stolen from Afghanistan's national museum and rich archeological sites in recent decades.  Obviously, in this process haven been participated the British Museum, UK police, people of the government and donors. This entire people are helping to returned some of the artefacts to Afghanistan

Some of the artefacts were found in private collections and bought back by donors. One case is, for example, a second –century schist Buddha, the statue was part of the museum’s collection, but disappeared in the early 1990s the bulding was on the frontline between warring factions who repeatedly raided its storerooms. The statue endend up with a Japanese collector, who refused to returned and send it in contraband, but an anonymous British used his own money to buy it and return it. In general, the objects recover and registered are ivory pieces, the Buddha statue and some bronze pieces very old.

To Afghanistan is very important recover this objects, because these pieces are the testament to the incredibly rich cultural history, are symbols that the people have to safe.

I choose this new because speak about the problems and responsibilities that Archaeology must to resolve today.
