In the past (and sometimes today) archeologists have visited other countries, "discovered" artifacts, and brought them back to t

heir home country. Sometimes to sell, sometimes to display in important museums. In recent decades, the home country has objected and demanded the "found" objects be returned. What do you think? What is the responsibility of collectors and museums to the country of origin? What is the responsibility of collectors and museums to our understanding of history?

Collectors and museums have a responsibility to return these artifacts to their country of origin if the artifacts were stolen through acts like colonization. Take Ancient Egypt, for example. British archaeologists and historians excavated the tombs of Pharaohs, completely ignoring that in Egyptian culture, the Pharaohs needed those artifacts the archaeologists extracted to safely travel to the afterlife. Taking these artifacts and bringing them back to Britain is detrimental to Egypt's history and culture, effectively stealing their heritage from them. But, museums also have a responsibility to spread easy access to history all across the world. They can do this, but with replicas of the artifacts instead of originals. This allows Egypt to keep its heritage in its own Pyramids and museums, while still being able to share that history with the world.

In 1936 Florence Thompson allowed Dorothea Lange to photograph her family because she thought it might help the plight of the working poor. "She always wanted a better life," her daughter later said. Lange took six pictures. Dorothea Lange took this photograph in 1936, while employed by the U.S. government's Farm Security Administration formed during the Great Depression to raise awareness of and provide aid to impoverished farmers. the image of a worried but resilient mother was so powerful that it prompted the government to send 20,000 pounds of food to relieve starvation in a migrant worker camp, and may have helped inspire John Steinbeck's literary classic The Grapes of Wrath.

Answer:

dunno if this helps :>

Explanation:

A half step, or semitone, is the smallest interval between notes in Western music. Notes that are directly next to each other—such as E and F, or A sharp and B—are a half step apart. Two half steps equal one whole step. The notes G and A are one whole step apart, as are the notes B flat and C
