One of the Parthenon Marbles, a Centaur

Built nearly 2,500 years ago as a temple dedicated to the Greek goddess Athena. Between 1801 and 1805 Lord Elgin, the British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire of which Athens had been a part for some 350 years, removed about half of the remaining sculptures from the fallen ruins and from the building itself. Since the early 1980s Greek governments have argued for the permanent removal to Athens of all the Parthenon Sculptures in the British Museum.
