"Egypt retrieves 4,000 yo figurine from London"-Artifact stolen from Aswan in 2013 & smuggled to London Repatriated thanks to honest collector.The figurine was part of the findings of Spanish mission working in Aswan in the period from 2009 until 2013, and has a height of about 16.5 cm and gilded inscriptions. Through poor stewardship, local thieves had no problems stealing this item. Now it is going back to Africa, maybe the natives will look after it better.
