3……….> Law Suit Settled: US vs San Francisco
.
SAN FRANCSICO — A three-year investigation by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) led to a settlement in a United States lawsuit, February 10, in which the City and County of San Francisco consented to the forfeiture of two Thai lintels housed and on display at the San Francisco Asian Art Museum.
The Thai lintels are two 1,500-pound hand-carved decorative relics which, according to court documents, were originally part of ancient religious temples in Thailand and are prime examples of the decorative lintel and material art traditions of Southeast Asian art.
These religiously significant lintels are alleged to have been exported from Thailand in violation of Thai law over 50 years ago and subsequently donated to San Francisco and displayed at its Asian Art Museum.
