To return the Elgin Marbles to Athens
To return the Elgin Marbles to Greece, Athens. The Marbles belong to Greece and represent a very important historic time as part of Greece's heritage. The Marbles were created by the Greeks more than 2000 years ago and need to be returned to Greece.
With the latest available 3D scanning technology which exists today, the Marbles can be scanned to create 1:1 models of the Marbles to be retained at the British museum. The original Marbles are to be returned to Greece.
