Reductio ad absurdum:

“[What] would it be if, in order to know the art, you always had to go to Greece, to know Mesopotamian art you had to go to [the Middle East]?” de Montebello asked. “What kind of a world would that be?"




Yes, and what kind of world would it be if when you went to the Middle East you found thousands of archaeological sites missing their artifacts?
