Should the Elgin marbles should stay in London or go back to Greece?
This is an opinion question and, as a result, you may have different answers.I believe that since the British properly paid the Ottoman government for the Elgin Marbles, transported them, and has protected them for roughly 200 years, the British should retain the right to exhibit the marbles. While I am sympathetic to the Greek argument that these treasures should be restored to their home, this is insufficient to match the incredible cost borne by the British in acquiring and preserving the artifacts, never mind the fact that Britain remains more stable for long term preservation of the artifacts and that there is no impediment to Greeks visiting the collections in Britain. (Compare this to the Iraqi Jewish Archive where the exhibition is slated to go to Iraq, where most Iraqi Jews - who are currently Israeli citizens - cannot go.)

What is the ancient greek building that was destroyed and then re built?
The building your talking about is the Parthenon It was destroyed by cannon fire and is being rebuilt today. The building that was destroyed then rebuilt was the Parthenon. During the Persian invasion in 480BC, the Persian were storing gun powder in an old temple. It soon was set on fire and blew up. The Parthenon we see today is actually the second Parthenon. The Greek Ministry of Culture are creating a restoration programme to restore the Parthenon and return the Elgin marbles or Parthenon Marbles back to Greece. Hope this helps isy_k
