Looted ancient sarcophagus returned to Egypt – BBC News
An ancient sarcophagus which was looted from Egypt by an art trafficking network has been returned to its homeland.
The 2.9m (9.5ft) long “Green Coffin” pre-dates Christ, and belonged to a priest called Ankhenmaat.
It was smuggled through Germany into the US in 2008, before a collector loaned it to the Houston Museum of Natural Science in 2013.
But now, after an investigation which spanned several years, the sarcophagus has been repatriated, with US diplomats handing over the artefact at a ceremony in Cairo.

Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.
Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.
At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.
So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?
AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.

If other countries hadn't taken these historic pieces they would of been looted and sold and any gold or silver items melted down which happened in many of Egyptian tombs. Glad that they were preserved for a time when people realize their Importance

"…and there are believed to be more out there" – yeah, a huge portion of that in the British museum. Must be shameful to report justice being done elsewhere when institutions in your country are unwilling to do the same.

As an Egyptian person,the majority of Egyptians like 90 % never care about such things,we don't have educational system ,we don't have health care system and the majority of my people under poverty line,so the only thing they care about is to get food for their children and we don't have that welfare life ,we don't go to vacations , everything is horrible here in this f country..as a young man at the age of 25 literally I hate everything about Egypt,i hope next year get my scholarship in the US and I swear I'll never come back again…
