Abstract

This research included the protection of antiquities in international conventions and the Libyan criminal law, given the importance of antiquities, in the preliminary research, we discussed the definition of the antiquities, as well as the importance of the antiquities from a historical, material, and moral perspective, in the first research, we discussed the protection of antiquities in international conventions and showed the extent of protection ordered by international agreements and conferences, while in the second research we discussed the sources of criminal protection for antiquities in Libya and showed the extent of protection that the legislator has guaranteed to antiquities through a special law regulating and criminally protecting antiquities, It criminalizes a group of acts that cause damage to antiquities or exposes them to danger, and stipulates many deterrent penalties, by tracing the provisions of the aforementioned law, it became clear that the Libyan project narrowed the concept of impact and restricted it to the rule of time without the control of interest, it also did not criminalize acts of smuggling antiquities, limiting himself to the penalties contained in the Penal Code and special laws, despite the seriousness and severity of these acts on antiquities the penalty was not increased if the perpetrator was a state employee. Finally, the research included many recommendations that should be followed to ensure more protection for antiquities
