1The Parthenon Marbles

One of the most iconic and controversial artifacts of Ancient Greece, the Parthenon Marbles, also known as the Elgin Marbles, are a collection of classical Greek sculptures, friezes, and architectural pieces.
Originally part of the Parthenon temple in Athens, these exquisite marble sculptures depict scenes from Greek mythology, including the Panathenaic procession.
Half of these marbles are housed in the British Museum, while the rest remain in Greece, fueling an ongoing debate about their rightful ownership.
