Chinese Artifacts Headed Back To China From Indiana

Nearly 400 urns, carvings and other artifacts seized from a Rush County farm five years ago are now headed back to China.

Chinese and American diplomats gathered at the Eiteljorg Museum in Indianapolis yesterday for a ceremony to finalize the transfer of Chinese items collected over the course of 60 years by amateur archeologist Don Miller of Waldron.

The F-B-I’s Art Crime Unit raided Miller’s farm in 2014, and Miller signed over about one-sixth of his collection to the bureau before his death in 2015.
