香港(美联社)——苏富比拍卖行周三决定推迟一场拍卖,这场拍卖原计划出售与佛陀遗体相关的珠宝。这是因为印度政府反对这次拍卖,并要求他们立刻停止。

拍卖行说,这些要拍卖的宝石以前和佛陀的一些遗物一起埋在一个佛教圣物里。这个圣物是1898年在印度北部找到的。这些珠宝的历史可以追溯到大约公元前240年到公元前200年。

但是印度文化部星期二在脸书上发了一个帖子,说他们已经给苏富比香港发了法律通知,要求马上停止卖这个东西,并且说这次拍卖违反了印度的法律、国际的规定和联合国的规定。

印度文化部写信给香港苏富比,说这次拍卖的佛教物品对印度和全世界的佛教徒来说非常重要。信中要求把这些物品还给印度政府,并要求拍卖行和Chris Peppé道歉。

值得注意的是,克里斯·佩佩是英国人威廉·佩佩的曾孙,他的曾祖父以前帮助挖出了这些古物。

信中警告说,如果他们不遵守,就会面临法律问题,还会有人公开反对他们。这些反对活动会告诉大家,拍卖行在“继续殖民时期不公平的事情和卖不好的宗教物品”中做了什么。

苏富比周三宣布推迟,他们说这是因为印度政府提出了一些问题,并且物主也同意了。他们在声明中说:“这样双方可以讨论,有新的情况我们会告诉大家。”

本周三,一些苏富比拍卖的网页已经无法打开。

印度文化部在社交媒体上说,他们已经介入,所以这次拍卖被推迟了。
