Talk:Yeghishe Derderian of Jerusalem

Attempted theft of medieval Armenian manuscripts
Can anyone find sources for the 1967 scandal where Derderian stole a selection of medieval manuscripts from the Armenian patriarchate's treasury and attempted to sell them through Sotheby's auction house in London. After protests, the auction was cancelled a week before the sale date and the manuscripts were eventually returned to Jerusalem. Tiptoethrutheminefield (talk) 15:17, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
