Book Description

As a result of Nishtar's injunction, Rauz Augurk has staked everything—his wealth, his reputation, his kingdom and his life—to find the mythical city of stone built by Patarshp, the Guardian of Creation. His friend, Prince Halifern, is almost killed by King Amiroth, who is coming to aid Rauz Augurk's search for the legendary city. In the meantime, Amishar and Mizu become the best of friends while the life they know breaks down around them, Temeron and Avita discover a world of their own that is as real as the one outside their dreams and Avator gets drawn into a world of crime and violence to save the lives of his family. Will Rauz Augurk uncover the secret of the City of Patarshp? Will Temeron and Avita's world survive? Will Mizu and Amishar's friendship protect them from the impending upheavals? As sweeping changes mould the lives of the protagonists, and the past casts long, ominous shadows on the present, everyone is drawn into a storm that is just beginning.

Artwashing the Past


Book Description

Artwashing the Past: Context Matters contributes to the wider discussion about the appropriate due diligence process that should be conducted prior to the acquisition of cultural objects. The chapters were written as museums in Europe and North America were facing a series of claims on recently acquired objects in their collections in the light of the photographic dossiers that had been seized from dealers in Switzerland and Greece. They engage with some of the recent debates over cultural property that include the Ka Ka Nefer mummy mask currently in the St Louis Art Museum, and the Leutwitz Apollo acquired by the Cleveland Museum of Art. Two of the essays reflect on the recent and controversial metal-detecting finds in England, the so-called Crosby Garrett helmet and the Lenborough Hoard.
