Acting on a tip from James Sinclair on the Subarch mailing list, I found this transcript of a discussion from March 6, at the New School in New York, on the cultural heritage and the provenance of antiquities. Moderated by the NYT art critic Michael Kimmelman, and including archaeologist Elizabeth Stone, museum directors James Cuno and Philippe de Montebello, and philosopher Kwame Anthony Appiah, the discussion covers much territory about cultural heritage and the mutability of modern nations.
