It is headquartered in Washington, D.C. The AC was founded in the aftermath of the Egyptian Revolution in January 2011, when, in the weeks after the uprising, reports of cultural racketeering[1][2] lit up archaeological hotlines due to the plundering of ancient sites, museums, storerooms, and places of worship. This looting crisis inspired the creation of the [https://archaeology.columbian.gwu.edu/international-coalition-protect-egyptian-antiquities International Coalition to Protect Egyptian Antiquities (ICPEA)], which developed a public-private partnership with the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities: the first of its kind.[3] The AC was founded in 2014 in order to host other initiatives similar to the ICPEA, and expand its model to other countries in times of crisis. ProjectsThe AC is leading the global campaign against cultural racketeering: the looting and trafficking of ancient art. This illicit industry is financing organized crime, armed conflict, and violent extremism around the world. It is erasing our past—and threatening our future. The Antiquities Coalition partners with leaders from the public and private sectors, tackles plunder-for-profit head on. Through independent research and outside collaborations, we develop and implement innovative and practical solutions, empowering communities and even countries in crisis. AC works with experts to analyze the illegal antiquities trade, which the Congressional Research Service has named as a major source of funding for the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.[4] AC also builds archeological databases,[5] and organizes conferences and roundtables, sometimes with Middle East officials responsible for the antiquities trade. In May 2015, the Antiquities Coalition organized the Culture Under Threat Conference in Cairo on the theft of antiquities.[6] Partners[7]
