A collection of essays exploring how the past has been reconstructed to serve nationalist agendas citing examples from South Africa, Rwanda, Yemen, Uzbekistan and Greece.  Two further examples, relating specifically to archaeology, examine how the Museum of Roman Civilization still today reflects Mussolini’s nationalist propaganda and Turkey’s successful campaign for the restitution of the looted Lydian Hoard but it’s less successful campaign for the repatriation of the Pergamon Altar to Zeus from its current location in Berlin.  Good clean consideration.  Cat No 3431
