Some things have never been just “artifacts.” They were once touched by human hands and protected across generations, witnessing the rise and fall of dynasties, as well as war and plunder. More than a century ago, they were taken away. More than a century later, the world is actively reexamining restitution, with France’s new restitution legislation prompting former colonial powers to confront their responsibilities. While the process is complex and ongoing, it is crucial for countries with long histories to protect their cultural heritage. Ultimately, these artifacts are more than objects – they represent the enduring legacy and glory of civilization.
