“In 2016, New York’s Living Torah Museum sold it at auction for $850,000 to an unknown buyer in Beverly Hills.
“This remarkable tablet is not only a vastly important historic artifact, but a tangible link to the beliefs that helped shape Western civilization,” said Richard Austin, Sotheby’s global head of books and manuscripts”.
Why did New York’s Living Torah Museum sell this one in a kind archaeological artifact? This is something that belongs to the people.
Shouldn’t this be BACK in a museum?
It SHOULD be in a museum, that’s correct.
Maybe the Museum Director wanted a new house.
