US Embassy hands over Tyre artifacts
The American Embassy announced the return of stolen Roman artifacts from the Lebanese city of Tyre, after their recovery by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The items, known as lead coffins dating back to the Roman era between the second and third centuries BC, originate from coffin-making workshops in Tyre. They were stolen during illegal excavations and then smuggled out. The artifacts were handed over to Lebanon through the consulate in New York, demonstrating the cooperation between the United States and Lebanon in combating the illegal trafficking of cultural property. The Minister of Culture stated that the artifacts are characterized by artistic and decorative features typical of ancient coffin-making workshops in Tyre, which were active during ancient times.
