| Looted artifacts back in Iraq |
| 2010-09-08 |
| BAGHDAD — Hundreds of Iraqi artifacts looted from museums and archaeological sites across the country — including a 4,400-year-old statue of an ancient king stolen during the US-led invasion — have been returned to Iraq and were displayed Tuesday. Iraq is home to relics of the world’s most ancient urban civilizations. Its priceless heritage was plundered during the country’s wars and upheavals, and its precious antiquities sold to collectors abroad. |
