And if it doesn't reflect the culture of either? Does it no longer belong anywhere? I suppose it must be possible for it to belong in a nation whose culture isn't reflected in the art, since many nations have historical art that doesn't reflect their contemporary culture. The idea that millennia old artifacts automatically belongs to a person or group because they live in the kind of area where it was made a thousand years previously just doesn't seem very satisfactory. Maybe it's the word "belong"; historical, meaningful or significant art feels like it shouldn't "belong" to anyone in the same sense of "belong" that I can own a tin of peas. Cave paintings in El Castillo, 40000 years old. The word "belong" really doesn't feel right.
