Abstract
On October 12 to 14, 2006, Willamette University hosted an international conference, “Cultural Heritage Issues: The Legacy of Conquest, Colonization and Commerce.” Some 30 distinguished panelists addressed five themes: the legacy of indigenous conquest, the legacy of international conquest and colonization, the legacy of commerce, avoidance and resolution of cultural heritage disputes, and issues related directly to museums and sites. Papers drew on the panelists' expertise in a broad range of disciplines, from archaeology to law enforcement. Topics included, for example, Repatriation of First Nations' Material Culture in Canada, the UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage, Recovery of Art Looted During the Holocaust, and The Effect of Colonization on the Cultural Property of Libya.
