A police raid in Sydney has netted more than 150 stolen Aboriginal artefacts which were being illegally offered for sale online.They look like simple rocks to me. How culturally significant could they be?The Tasmanian department of primary industries said the raid was prompted by reports the items were on the verge of being sold.
"It is very concerning that these culturally significant items are just being treated as a commodity," natural and cultural heritage division chief enforcement officer Luke Bond told AAP.
The items are believed to have been taken from a number of locations around Tasmania.
