<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bosko69, post: 4891494, member: 16283&quot;]Offered currently at Sotheby&#039;s a large,superb,diverse collection of Neolithic Pottery.These ceramics are the artistic cultural &#039;touchstones&#039; of Chinese History-7000BCE-1000BCE.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;m still unclear as to how someone can acquire such a large amount (OK-this part i know-paying grave robbers &amp; other &#039;collectors&#039;). </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; But how does someone legally sell these items at one of the most prestigious auction houses in the world in the full light of day ?</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Other small-timers get fined for 15-20 arrowheads,who knows.I&#039;m sure it&#039;s all legal with the right Lawyers.Some of the stuff that comes up for bid blows my mind.</p><p>&nbsp; Forum Pals-We&#039;ve debated Antiquity Laws here ad nauseaum,but said laws are still a mystifying wonder to behold ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
