Nearly a century on from the discovery of his tomb, Tutankhamun-mania shows no sign of relenting. But issues of ownership and repatriation surrounding Tut-related objects aren't going away either.

An Egyptian brown sculpture of Tutankhamen sold for nearly $6 million at Christie's auction house.Attorney Leila Amineddoleh, who's working with the Greek government on similar repatriation issues, called the"alleged provenance" of the sculpture"inaccurate or highly questionable.""It is not acceptable," she said,"for art market participants to turn a blind eye towards problematic provenance or ignore red flags.
