US begins returning $10m of antiquities stolen from Italy

  1. > The vast majority of the stolen artefacts are believed to be connected to Edoardo Almagià, an Italian antiques dealer who lived in New York until 2003. Almagià was investigated in Italy for smuggling and selling stolen artefacts, but he will not face criminal charges since the statute of limitations for the crime has expired.

    160 artefatti tornano subito, 40 restano per qualche mese in esposizione al consolato italiano a New York. Probabilmente quelli che tornano subito senza pomposità sono le minuzie. Fascini, olle, monete e reperti da magazzino di museo.

  2. >Almagià said the money spent on the investigation could have been spent “repairing Italian museums rather than on persecuting traders”.

    E allora Bibbiano?!!1!1?
