You know those were meant for the palace of the emperor, right ? And you think these artifacts only gained value 600 years later
You also know the British military stole the artefacts from the palace of the emperor and those of his chiefs, right ?
So when did they become valuable again ?

African Americans are a bunch of a-holes, always ready to stab us Africans in the back. These artefacts have nothing to do with slavery whatsoever.
