Notice of Receipt of Cultural Property Request From the 
Government of the Hellenic Republic

    Greece, concerned that its cultural heritage is in jeopardy from 
pillage, made a request to the Government of the United States under 
Article 9 of the 1970 UNESCO Convention. The request was received on 
July 2, 2010, by the United States Department of State. It seeks U.S. 
import restrictions on archaeological and ethnological material from 
Greece dating to the Neolithic Era through the mid-eighteenth century.
    The specific contents of this request are treated as confidential 
government-to-government information.
    Information about the Act and U.S. implementation of the 1970 
UNESCO Convention can be found at http://exchanges.state.gov/heritage/. 
A public summary of the Greek Request will be posted on the Web site.

    Dated: August 18, 2010.

Assistant Secretary, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs,
