Denver Art Museum Returns 1,500-Year-Old Marble Head to Turkey

The Denver Art Museum has returned a 1,500-year-old marble head to Turkey, marking another successful restitution for the country in its ongoing efforts to recover looted antiquities. Turkey has achieved a series of successes in recent years in reclaiming cultural artifacts from collections worldwide. The marble sculpture, dating back approximately 1,500 years, was repatriated as part of Turkey's broader campaign to recover objects that were illegally removed from the country.
