Oh shit guys, I have some of these on my mantle from my gap year in 2001! I better take them back to Cambodia.

Aus museum can pay my flights, I’m happy to do it.

Good on you NGA. Pity you gave millions to a smuggler only 12 years ago, but at least you're making some of that right now.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Mr Latchford’s daughter, Nawapan Kriangsak, worked alongside researchers from the NGA and Cambodia’s Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts to help return the goods.

“It is an opportunity to put right a historical wrong but also to strengthen our ties and deepen our understanding,” Australia’s Special Envoy for the Arts Susan Templeman said at a handover ceremony on Friday.

Cambodia has continued to call on international governments to recover thousands of antiquities it says were stolen from its ancient temples - including several it says are housed in the Victoria and Albert and British Museums.

In 2021, the gallery returned a series of artefacts to India - some dating back to the 11th Century - which were linked to the alleged antiquities smuggler Subhash Kapoor and the late New York art dealer William Wolff.

In March, it was announced that four Aboriginal spears taken by British explorer Captain James Cook and his landing party when they first arrived in Australia in 1770 would be returned to their traditional owners.

I’m a bot and I’m open source!
