Do you have a link for where I can find that book? Been searching with no luck. Presently doing research on a small Minoan pottery pitcher, or perhaps an aryballos that I was told came from the German seller's grandfather who was a German Wehrmacht soldier stationed on Crete in 1941. He said his grandfather brought it back with him to Germany. It's a lovely little thing (about 2 in. wide by about 3.5 in. tall) but I'm very disturbed by its potential provenance. Not sure if it was a tourist souvenir of the time or an antiquity. If the latter, it needs to go home to Crete. It looks very old. Was hoping Vasileios Petrakos' book might help me figure it out but that seems to have also gone missing from the internet. Any help you could give me to finding the book or other resources listing WW2 looted Crete antiquities would be greatly appreciated.Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00951008848232530217noreply@blogger.com
