I have discussed this notorious act of cultural property removal elsewhere in the American Journal of Archaeology [JSTOR].
There are implications for the Ny Carlsberg Glypotek in Copenhagen, the Cleveland Museum of Art, and the private collector Shelby White.
It would be a great achievement if Turkey could reunite the bronzes, marble sculptures and their related inscriptions from this single structure.

Which marble sculpture from the Sebasteion at Boubon are you referring to?
