After being abroad for decades, 68 Chinese cultural relics that had been taken to the United Kingdom recently were returned to their homeland thanks to joint efforts of the two countries, the National Cultural Heritage Administration said at a news【C1】con________on Wednesday.
Some of the relics span millennia,【C2】________(date) from the Spring and Autumn Period (770—476 BC) to the Qing Dynasty (1644—1911), and they encompass a variety of items, mainly ceramics. They are from a variety of provinces, including Jiangxi, Anhui, Fujian, Henan, Shaanxi, Hebei and Guizhou.
Their return brings an end to a quarter-century of efforts for repatriation, said Guan Qiang, deputy director of the administration.
In February 1995, the Metropolitan Police Service in London informed the Chinese embassy in the UK that an investigation into the sale of stolen property involved a group of cultural relics that were believed to be from China. That was confirmed by the administration in Beijing,【C3】________said that they were smuggled out of China.
British police【C4】sei________all the items in an operation that March. Soon, the State Council, China’ s Cabinet, set up a special cross-departmental working group to bring them home.
In 1998, over 3,000 relics were returned to China after cooperation by law enforcement units, a lawsuit and negotiations. It was the largest single repatriation of lost cultural relics in the history of New China.
However, a local buyer of dozens of remaining relics refused to take part in negotiations, and the civil dispute dragged on after hitting a deadlock. The 68 relics remained impounded by British police.
" But we never stopped working on the case and stayed in close contact【C5】________the embassy and the British side to follow up on their latest information," Guan said.
A break finally appeared. In January, the Metropolitan Police informed the Chinese embassy that the deadline for prosecution in the case had passed, but the whereabouts of the buyer were unknown. The police showed a【C6】________(will) to return the items to China after seeking legal advice.
The process of getting the artifacts home immediately was restarted. In spite of delays created by the COVID-19【C7】pan________, Yu Peng, a minister counsellor from the embassy, led a team to check the inventory in July. A quarter century earlier, Yu had been the person responsible for first contacting the British police in the case.
The Metropolitan Police Service handed the artifacts to the Chinese embassy in October. The Chinese ambassador to the UK, also held an online handover ceremony just before the relics【C8】dep________. Joining the embassy in presenting the event were officials of the British Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.
The relics were transported in tailor-made cases and landed intact in Beijing on Oct 20, but the process had remained【C9】con________until Wednesday.
"The consistent action showed our determination to solve crimes and bring back lost or stolen cultural relics from overseas," Guan said.
An expert panel was organized to examine and appraise the relics as soon as they arrived in Beijing, according to Deng Chao, director of the cultural relic repatriation office of the National Cultural Heritage Administration.
"Generally, they are very well preserved and in good shape," Deng said. "Many of them are of very great value for【C10】________(history) and scientific studies".
He said 13 artifacts have been labeled as national precious cultural relics of the second-highest grade, and 30 are categorized as being of the third-highest grade. [br] 【C1】
