Replicating the Lydian treasure from a Turkish perspective
View through CrossRef
In this brief paper the so-called Lydian treasure in the Museum of Uşak in western Turkey and its associated history has been presented. The collection is alternatively known as the Karun Treasure, a name given to a collection of 363 valuable Lydian artifacts dating from the seventh century BC and originating from the province of Uşak in western Turkey. This collection was the subject of a legal battle between Turkey and the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art between 1987–1993 and was returned to Turkey in 1993 after the Museum admitted it had known the objects were stolen when they had purchased them.
