More than 10 million Chinese cultural relics have been lost overseas，most of which were stolen and illegally shipped out of China during the times of war before 1949.About 1.67 million pieces are housed in more than 200 museums in 47 countries，which accounts for 10 percent of all lost Chinese cultural relics，and the rest are in the hands of private collectors.
Most of these treasures are owned by museums or private collectors in the United States，Europe，Japan and Southeast Asian countries.There are more than 23,000 pieces in the British Museum，most of which were stolen or bought for pennies more than 100 years ago.
