Campaigners in Australia fighting for the restitution of Aboriginal artefacts that are on show at the British Museum, London, say that the Greek government may intervene on their behalf. Aboriginal groups say that two tree barks, which were decorated by members of the Dja Dja Wurrung community in the 1850s and are included in the museum’s exhibition Indigenous Australia: Enduring Civilisation (until 2 August), should be returned. Gary Foley, an associate professor at the Moondani Balluk Indigenous Academic Unit of Victoria University in Melbourne, told Museums Journal that, because of their ongoing claim on the Parthenon Marbles in the British Museum’s collection, the Greeks felt an affinity for the indigenous cause. “We are anticipating a possible intervention by the Greek government,” Foley said. The Greek embassy in London declined to comment.
