And war zones have their own cultural dimensions. This is the story of a war zone Buddha head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2002, wooden crates at Heathrow airport off a flight from Peshawar in Pakistan were found to contain nine sculptural heads and a torso. These 4th-6th century terracotta Buddha heads (from a time when Buddhism was the main religion in Afghanistan) had probably been hacked off by the Taliban during their modern reign of cultural terror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The illegal looting and smuggling of artefacts from Afghanistan and Iraq became big business in the last decade or so.&nbsp;After a lengthy legal process, these objects were finally sent to the&nbsp;British Museum&nbsp;in 2018 to be analysed, conserved and catalogued. Since 2009 the British Museum has helped return 2,345 objects to Afghanistan, Iraq and Uzbekistan \u2013 mostly the result of illegal trafficking. These artefacts were returned to the National Museum of Afghanistan in Kabul at the end of 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every day for 30 days we will be featuring a museum obj [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3927","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-opinion-zh-hant"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
