Summary/Abstract: The article deals with different normative regulations concerning the acquisition of movables from a non domino purchased in good faith, which occur in selected civil law and common law systems, within the context of trafficking in illegally acquired archaeological monuments. The article also raises the problem of the choice of law in cases concerning archaeological monuments and works of art – whether the same rules for choosing the law should be applied to any movables, or if a different approach should be taken into consideration as far as archaeological monuments are concerned.
