Having recently read a magnificant book about archaeological treasures & seen once again pictures of the head-dresses & the Ram & the other Sumerian pieces, I can only hope they are going on the blackmarket & not being melted down as other treasures have been in the (recent &) distant past.

Another futile war - uncounted people dead, & the living still suffering - loss of family members, friends, homes, water, food, utilities, health care & also culture.
