Gravitas Plus: Western museums must return stolen artefacts
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 гру 2021
- From the Koh-i-Noor to the Rosetta stone, western museums are filled with colonial loot. They're holding artefacts that were either stolen or taken unfairly.
On Gravitas Plus Palki Sharma asks: Do they have any right to keep displaying them?

During their occupation, the Bargi mercenaries of the Marathas are said to have perpetrated massacres against the local population. [18] According to estimation of Chief of Dutch Factory Jan Kerssebom's memoirs perhaps close to 400,000 Hindu people in western Bengal and Bihar were killed.[19] Contemporary accounts of the invasions report mass gang rape against women and children,[20][21][22][23][24][25] and mutilation of victims by the Marathas which included cutting off their hands and noses.[26][27] According to the Bengali text Maharashtra Purana, "Durga ordered her followers to be gracious to the Muslim Nawab and oppose the Marathas, because the evil-minded ones had killed Brahmans and Vaisnavas."[17] The Marathas intended to establish their rule in western Bengal by attracting the local Hindu zamindars against the Muslim Nawab but the high atrocities against the Hindu population diminished all the possibilities of such an alliance.[17]
Exactly 💯 Truth Here she's Not Afraid like the number of docile humans that will not call out Right and Wrong?
@@Sweetdification she's not telling the truth the middle east plundered the Indian subcontinent because that's what it was before the British turned India was a nation for 800 years.
Why don't they ask Afghanistan, Turkey, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, North Africa etc to return artifacts.
The Mughal empire which ruled most of India before the British declared independence from the rest of the Muslim world so they could keep what they were taking from the Hindus instead of paying tribute with it to the Muslim world.
An example is the two diamonds held by the Iran central bank which were taken in an invasion of northern India in 1739 by an Iranian ruler. By the way the British were in India at the same time.
These two diamonds form part of the Iranian crown jewels and are among the largest in the world.
I would like to know why Indians don't demand these jewels to be returned but demand the jewel in the British crown which was ceded to queen Victoria after the Anglo/Sikh war in 1849 after which the Sikhs became allies of the British.

There are millions of Britishers who still takes pride of their col onial history of loot , plunder , vio lence, mass acre.
They still consider their col onial past as their legacy.
So we can't forgive the present generation Britishers
It’s all fair in love and war ❤️🇬🇧your country’s should of looked after stuff properly it’s war loot get over it
As French. 🤣🤣🤣. Maybe we should do the same. Returing the stolen artifacts
I stopped going to Museum these days
Everyone should boycott the museums displaying stolen items, till those items return where they belong.
DAMN RIGHT!
RETURN THE LOOT!
Foreign museums, especially English and France museums are obligated to return looted (STOLEN) goods to their rightful owner/country. Give back what you by force have looted
there not obligated. they were either given by the rulers of that time. taken as spoils as every nation dies in war or rescued from the nation at that time destroying them. you should be happy they were cared for by a nation that appreciates beauty. if you think they should be returned to whom. if you live in Europe you have had all the benefits of living better than your forefathers. be grateful for that and move on.
Their Empires have crumbled, but their sense of entitlement has not.

@Bond Valcano I agree other nations have the right to their artifacts however we shouldn't judge western countries from their past. Yes they should return the artifacts but most people in Europe and North America probably doesn't even know about these artifacts and would support the return. Simply its the museums who are seeking profits over ethics. Very interesting points the unbias is very hard to come by today.

@@omtoolika The kohinoor is cursed, it adorned the eyes of a deity & was later looted by the Muslims. It destroyed the Muslim rulers & was later acquired by maharaja Ranjit Singh who wished to donate it to the Jagganath temple in puri on his death bead but British took it away. It is cursed, it'll bring down everyone who wears it.

No doubt, all the loot has to be returned.
If the owners agree, they may permit the museums to make copies of the artifacts, so the museums too can continue to exhibit them.
I just love this woman’s delivery.. so poised!

As a western I admit what you are saying, it's your right to have it back
When you ask the Taliban to return the Bamian Buddhas then ask the west to return stolen artificats

Ps. I am not at all justifying the Taliban's, I come from a country also from a community which is threatened by Taliban the most.

*"Disputed ownership" is a typically British way of saying something is stolen.*
Very true
It can also mean that is difficult to decide which country an artifact belongs to. For example, the Koh-i-Noor stone is claimed by four different nations. These nation-states weren't around 200-300 years ago... makes it a lot harder!
@@vigfhfc that's just an excuse, in Indonesia they use terms of "preservation & gift" when the history document clearly say that they got the artifacts from raiding & stealing from kingdoms treasury.
Wtf those who have power should keep it . IT IS AS SIMPLE AS THAT
@@vigfhfc This is a point often raised with some artifacts. However, in the Koohinoors case, the diamond's origin is indisputably traced to the Kollur mines which belong in India (now and then). Its original owners were the Kakatiya kings, the last owner prior to its removal from the subcontinent was Ranjit Singh who willed it to the Jagannath temple, in present day Orissa. Ultimately it is a shiny rock so I don't really care for it that much and I think the Koohinoor is overrated and given outsized attention. Jobs, Shelter, food and friendship are more important to me as a human being as human life and dignity are worth far more than a shiny rock. The question continues to arise however for Hindu and Buddhist sculptures as these were objects of veneration that belong to a still continuing and thriving culture/civilization. Home affordability is an issue in modern times and doing away with museums and unused commercial properties (affected by lockdown measures) to make space for residential spaces would be a good thing.
Yes Palki absolutely agreed, our PM must make some strategy to bring back all our stolen treasures. ...
This is why I am actually enjoying Britain falling apart and not have any regret about it.
Important thing to be noted- *British Warehouse of LOOT* not BRITISH Museum
Don't hear the Guardian ever write about this and supposedly the UK has free press.
The Indian Section and African Section are not popular so I think a request for your Artifacts should go through and the Space can used for Tibetan Uighur Mongul Artifacts that we have can be viewed as they would of been destroyed

Remember we are in Britain, just because their ancestors were in our country century ago.
The whole Asia and Africa must come together and launch a case Against these Museums.
Absolutely very little interest in them and the space could be used
Museums say no 😆 now what? Don't try to steal it back cuz you will get shot or charge with theft 🤦 gl everyone the world is looking to cause war it seems :(
@Yogi More like sold for money so they wouldnt be poor. But Britain wont be poor, it never was.
@Yogi It's not as simple as that. Some artifacts have been claimed by multiple countries, such as the Koh-i-Noor stone, which is claimed by India, Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan. And why the fines and who is going to enforce them? And why would you pay a fine determined by the amount of seconds or something? You have some weird ideas...
Majority of the visitors to the British Museum are from overseas and the African and Indian Section are always empty there doesn't seem to be the interest so offcourse they must be returned
Irony is they call our counties "shit hole" then they present all of our artifacts monuments in their so called world class museum.
I wish I'd give more likes for this... I'm an historian from Kenya and future historians need to learn history from history's point of origin. Thank you

Lord MacAulay's address to the British Parliament 2 February 1835: I have traveled across the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief, Such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such calibre, that I do not think we would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and therefore, I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will lose their self-esteem, their native self-culture and they will become what we want them, a truly dominated nation.
My country The Philippines also has a lot of important pre colonial cultural loot in those museums. Items that not everyone in the country was aware of even exists. The worst part is that its mostly pre colonial, an important time mostly forgotten and not taught in schools. How can they say that people will learn from there when not even half of the population of my country can afford to go to Europe. And if we do go there its mostly just to have a living that can properly provide for the families back home, don't even get me started on the jobs offered to my country men, I know a lot of people who are so overqualified and yet the only jobs these countries can offer them are just -

Most European empires left on good terms and are still allies with their former colonies.
The British people voted not to have an empire.

Well said Palki, why don't these western museums display their own cultural art instead of the stolen art of Africa and Asia? Does it exist or are they hiding it?
Their culture if there is any is very meager. Nobody is going to pay to visit there museums . Therefore they will not have any tourist revenue. Comes down to money spinning
Because they have no culture
There wouldn't be much of it anyways in these western world ... It doesn't exist will be the truth ...America especially

What about the stolen god statues from Indian temples by Antonio Maino family, sent to Italy to Maino's sister through Robert Vadra under diplomatic passage which were sold in overseas markets by the Antonio Maino's family?
Lots of stuff, maybe double is held in private collections and more everyday is looted, sold and hidden from authorities.
Ok, let us say the British return all these pieces of Art and History to the nations from they were stolen. Then, if you want to watch them, you would have to go to several countries, paying more plane tickets, risking your health and even your life, for India, Africa, even Egipt are dangerous places with all the poverty they exhibit. Empires always stole from the defeated. Leave the British Museum alone. India, Africa, and the whole world should worry first about HUMAN TRAFFICKING, hunger, dictatorships, wars, ignorance, religious fanatism, etc. Leave the past alone and do not try to revise it, for it will only lead to WAR. But, if we are going to do it, ask also Rusia where are the collections of Spaniard´s paintings they stole from Cuba during the 1960s, or the entire factory the Ruskies dissembled and took away from an American company after the Cuban dictatorship intervened that co. without remuneration. Or ask China to stop technological espionage for that matter.
Right,
Antonio Maino has been looting Indian temples and monasteries for years while sending previous, priceless artefacts abroad. What about that? We need to fix matters back our home, punish the agents of the west, before we move our pledge towards the west.
Demand the wealth looted from India by Iran and other countries. Vijaya nagara treasures took two months to completely loot. Will any Islamic European country return the loot? Peacock Throne? Let us not dream. Present Indian security, investigation, punishment is poor. Think of thousands idol theft since several decades from Tamil Nadu, again ivory by Veerappan, presently the red sanders. Where the looted money has gone. Why no CBI investigation. Better to concentrate on present loot than the past and take protective measures.

Oh Stop this nonsense, then return Capitalism and English also back to Britain. Andhra's riches are looted by Tamil Nadu and Telangana because Andhra never had its own modern capital. But some of Andhras Amaravati relics are better maintained in British Museum than they are in Madras and Hyd which claim them as theirs or concoct the history. At least British has a sense to not to claim them as theirs. Stop stop stop. Even Kohinoor belongs to Andhra, first in the hands of Eastern Chalukyas, then came under Kakateeyas and then the Moghuls.

Box them up carefully and ship them back to country of origin . They have been well cared for at least.
It looks like the British are saying "I still own you; you can't do anything about it!"
without the loot there is nothing for them to display
Well,that is just not true either. There is a big warehouse down the road from me in Granton that is full of stuff that there is simply not enough room to display to the public
Russ,mostly it is from Scotland. There are many reasons too why objects from another country appear in collections - it is not just always looted
Well, they can bring one of those Stonehenge into the museum
I said they can display all their weaponry , missiles , torture devices they used on God's Israelites, photos of all the animals they brought to extinction, photos of billions of human beings that were genocide , and their holy cross!!! What a prideful legacy 👏 aye ??? 👏

I know muslim need it back because they want to destroy eu's sovereignty
Is it true Israel stole artifacts from invasion of Iraq??? I remember a journalist mention that, isreal scavengers ?
You say European, and yet Americans own stuff too, look at what Bill Gates owns, including ancient British artifacts
They need to give it back, looters
@@jellyfishi_ and the funny part is the home countries kept these artifacts safe for thousands of years until the British stole them
As someone who lives in the UK, ALL artefacts should be returned to their country of origin. So the museums shelves might be a little bare. So what. Loot is loot. If they don't have any proof of ownership, it doesn't belong to us.
GOD BLESS US ALL.TRUTHS WILL SET US FREE.
Palki, you are a freaking GEM! You are a kohinoor diamond of India. Lots of love from an NRI
Lol. Loves India, doesn't live there.
@@peaceformula5830 they leave for more money, not for hatred for India
@@atriacharya2967 The British took artifacts for World Heritage and study of history not for hatred of India.

Atleast Britain should return Maharaja Ranjit Singh Ji's throne he is a hero of the Sikh Community and of all Indians for that matter.
They will never return anything in the first place. That is how they are.
Indians are always with the West against China but occasionally Indians would feel something is wrong about this arrangement, especially with India's slavery by the West 😂😂😂😂

It not just the artifact. They need to return our African gold, diamonds, and all the precious stones.
From Ireland. Very good report addressing the pink elephant in the room for all Colonialist Brits. Incidentally, was the pink elephant another stolen treasure? Joking aside, the average citizen of the UK are blissfully unaware of a whole range of atrocities and thefts done to other peoples they have conquered and colonised on behalf of the greed of royals down through the centuries. Well done for your hard hitting report. Justice is not often achieved in this world.
You hear about the Potato Famine in Ireland and there was Bengal Famine due to PM Churchill in 1940 onwards. Ireland got divided into Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland in 1922 and India was divided in 1947 into India and Pakistan. We Indians have more similarities with Irish people in sufferings from our colonizers.
Sure it is, it's called WAR AND BRITS WILL GET THEIRS IN COMING ONE!
Well done for half understanding the situation.
@@vedicpride We are waiting ! You idiots do not get it , my family was only cannon fodder for the British army
We had no choice , they took all the farms away from the poor people , it really was one of the only jobs available to poor British men That or starve , do you know how the UK Government has actually treated poor people ?
True give it all back , see what happens !. And the missing arts stolen and hidden?
British museum. Should I say British warehouse of loot. 😅
Imagine giving back buddha statues to taliban or Pakistan. They will destroy it.
Last year itself Pakistanis destroyed 2000 year old buddha statue as its mandate of their religion.
Let the west crumble in next 50 years, and then we can shift them.
The west is north america south america and Europe
It won't crumble

if the british hadn't arrived n colonized, many countries would be living under nazi facist tyranny.
with that said, all the countries colonized by britain owe them a great big thank you.
Totally agree - by charging fees to see these unfairly obtained cultural objects from former colonies, these developed countries continue to benefit from institutions derived from oppressive colonial systems. SHAME ON THEM!
Well,I agree in general,but the British Museum has free entry so this story is a bit misleading
@@daveharruk How shamelessly, western society looted and stolen great treasure of the countries from Asia and Africa. Shamelessly society must return unconditionally and say SORRY for your criminal gestures. Sadly Western society still living under clutches of gestures like RACISM, coding several barbarism gestures. Western society "uncivilized criminal mind" inheritance in their DNA. Tell your government and people live like human beings not like THIEFS, LOOTERS, telling lies. Still you need to ask evidence, your blindfolded eyes, dumbness will eradicate by providing ancient scriptures.
She forgot to add the queens Crown Jewels taken from South Africa’s Kimberley mines and more …
I dont know if anyone else can remember when the british gave back the nigerian war monuments a few years ago, literally 1 month later the museum it was located in was robbed and the artifact magically sold for 30 million dollars. Africa lost one of its most pristine pieces of history to some thief who probably sold it to a european millionaire.This is probably why the brits are nervous about giving any loot back, it is also politically incorrect to say : "well we dont trust that you wont just end up selling it for profit".
@@sew_gal7340 So what if the countries of origin sell the artifacts for profit? They own them, so they can do whatever the heck they please with them. Who are the Brits, or anybody else, to stipulate what should be done with those objects?
Apart from fareed zakary’s GPS every Sunday on cnn, this Chanel is the most educational I’ve seen on UA-cam by far .
Love this women the way she explains
It's high time to call thieves as thieves. Such stolen artefacts should be restituted along with apology to the looted countries
Boo hoo, you shouldn't of been rubbish at war
Apology letters lol...how about the 4 quadrillion dollars in wealth stolen from India...reparations
No it's not, in that case they need to let other's apologies from stealing in these dazes, instead of putting them in jail
Frank Underwood, If i would steal something right now, and apologize they ain't gonna except my apologies, they don't wanna hear that, they wi put my little short dumpy behind in a jail cell until court.
So why they should except their apologies

as a native or an indian of america thank you so much for mentioning all this, please mention more abt america n tribal treasures
you are not an Indian , I am . And you are the true American ,instead of the europeans in America
My dear indian of America... U r ture son of ur soil... Traibal Union is real & ancient not the city culture which only speaks money but definitely not love
You should stop using Indian to yourself. It is false name given to u by columbus. You are native american proudly say that.
America is named after Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian explorer who set the native Indians into fire to convert them to Christianity
Dear Natives around the world, are you still following the colonizers foreign religion ? Are you and your future generation forgetting your native roots?
From Kohinoor to Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj sword everything should come back to India!
How can some people be so detached from civilized manners..
I grew up going to museum to see these "things" never gave it a second thought about where they came from and why there were there. Why? Cause I grew up in colonial city, Hong Kong. Where nothing more than how to make money and get a good job was taught. World citizenship, what was that? Social responsibilities, can't feed your families with it. Is all about subject of Physics, Chemistry and Biology so you are guarantee a good job to be an engineer or doctor. I'm now 64 and only in the last century or so am I starting see how damaging it was as a people, "Hong Kong People" that I grew up without roots. Certainly I was not British, I can't just freely move and live there. You are not Chinese cause they keep that part of the education to a minimum and we look down on their system, most still do. And sadly nobody talked about how this colonial past affected generations of youth.

They only reason why the Egyptian pyramids are still intact is because they are too heavy to carry to the British museum.

Hell no, none of the artifacts belongs to them, therefore it must be returned immediately.

There's lots of other amazing things to see in England. India's treasures belong India.
@Jo Sm if India, or any other country wishes to sell an item to Britain, I don't have the slightest problem with that and I would agree that enriches the local populace. The issue arises when they have stolen items from other countries - even under their own law, you cannot give better title than you have and a thief has none.
It's shameful exhibiting stolen goods as if the owners of those ( stolen goods) can't see them.

"British Warehouse of Loot." I love you girl. The truth is the truth.
They stole a entire country they should give that back
Total loot is estimated around 45 trillion dollars( present USA economy 35 trillion) They mock us for being third world country and being poor.
Not realising that they r developed and rich because of our wealth.
Yes
@@mantesh1379 Its poor because its not industrialised not because of few sculpures
They will go bankrupt, just even if they return half of things they looted from india
They stole entire continent and keeled its native population.
