WEB SITE: CULTURAL PROPERTY ADVICE

David Ganz forwarded a note from Peter K. Tompa, who writes: "The
UK has launched a new web site containing advice about cultural
property issues.  Many thanks to Eric McFadden for bringing it to
my attention."

The web site notes that "Cultural Property Advice is a comprehensive
on-line advisory service to help you to collect, buy and sell art,
antiques and antiquities legitimately and with confidence. It provides
a reliable, accurate and practical source of information and guidance
on cultural property including: exporting and importing cultural
objects; current legislation; news on stolen and illicitly traded
objects; and lots of checklists and factsheets to support what you
are doing."

To view the web site, see: culturalpropertyadvice.gov.uk

over the trade in cultural artifacts, which many fear will lead to
the cut off of supplies of newly discovered hoards. -Editor]
