U.S. museum returns stolen ancient Egyptian golden coffin
An ancient golden coffin worth $4 million, believed to have been looted from Egypt and sold to the Metropolitan Museum of Art (the Met) in New York City, finally returned home this month.
The 2,100-year-old coffin of a priest called Nedjemankh was sold to the Met by an art trafficking network using fake documentation, the BBC said.
Looted from the Minya region of Egypt after the country’s 2011 revolution, the coffin was smuggled to the United Arab Emirates and then later to Germany.
The Met apologized to Egypt and handed over the ornate, mummy-shaped coffin following a probe involving authorities in Egypt, Germany and France.
