Returning ancient artefacts to their countries of origin and have tightened checks on acquisitions to avoid buying objects that were illegally excavated or smuggled abroad. The British Museum which acquired the marbles in 1816 refuses to return them to Greece on the ground that its statutes do not allow it to do so.
