  2. Why is there a debate about Elgin Marbles!

    There is a debate about the Elgin marbles because some people think that the marbles should be taken back to there original home in Greece.Other people think that they should be kept in the British Museum because it is a fine place.On one hand people think that Britan have a right to keep the Elgin Marbles because Lord Elgin rescued them from the Parthenon and presented them to Britan two hundred years ago. On the other hand people say that the Elgin Marbels should be sent to Greece and the Parthenon because it is were they came from and were they should stay.
