I didn’t remember it quite right. They settled with the IRS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theft_of_medieval_art_from_Quedlinburg Enough of this. It’s barely cave related. Bill Steele > On Nov 13, 2019, at 10:00 AM, Bill Steele wrote: > >  > The guy who sent the art back to Texas kept it

Re: [Texascavers] A relative of Tom Meador?

The guy who sent the art back to Texas kept it hidden in an apartment in Dallas where he took men he met in bars to impress them. When he passed away his family found it and attempted to get it appraised and sold. They sold some of it before an appraiser saw that one item was listed as missing

According to the Archaeology article I attached, it wasn't a theft of art, but rather an attempt to protect it from being seized by Russian forces. I guess it all depends on your point of view. Mark M On 2019-11-13 10:06, Bill Steele wrote: A few years ago I read a highly interesting book

Re: [Texascavers] Fwd: Re: [SWR CAVERS] A relative of Tom Meador?

A few years ago I read a highly interesting book about the incredible art theft by a Texan. The book is still in print: “Treasure Hunt: A New York Times Reporter Tracks the Quedlinburg Hoard” by William H. Honan. The army officer art thief hid his loot in a cave in Germany before shipping it

Re: [Texascavers] Updated The Hall of Texas and Mexico Cavers

Speaking as a mother...ex-female caver...having children is wonderful, but changes your ability to go caving. Easy family trips become the norm. No more expedition type trips until the kids are old enough to stay home alone, or go along safely. Or you stay home with the kids and your spouse goes

Re: [Texascavers] Updated The Hall of Texas and Mexico Cavers

Mark, I believe your assessment that the older female cavers disappeared or dropped out - or became more cautious and lived longer - is correct. Of the 5 in the Temple Cavers from 1973, I was the only one who continued to actively cave for very long once away from a grotto! Yet, once I had a
