Labyrinth of Lies

.
"Labyrinth of Lies": This seems a pretty good analogy to the no-questions-about-collecting-history part of it in which freshly dug up and smuggled finds are masked by the pretence that there is somehow a huge bulk of unprovenanced but legitimate material floating around outside public collections, and that any artefact emerging from the provenance-losing labyrinth "must be" one of them.
