The Parthenon Marbles
Portions of the marble sculptures that comprised the Parthenon frieze, metopes, and pediment statues were removed from Greece in the early 1800s by Lord Elgin and sold to the British government. There is now a movement to return the marbles to Greece. The site features a history of the marbles, Greek and British government positions on their return, the status of the return efforts, and more. Includes images.
