For more than half a century, a specialised Italian police unit has been confiscating valuable artefacts from the black market. Some 15,000 recovered items are housed at the National Archaeological Museum of Naples-and now, the museum is displaying 600 of them for the first time.
Titled 'Treasures Rediscovered: Stories of Crime and Stolen Artefacts', the exhibition focuses not only on ancient artworks, but also on the 'often complex dynamic' of illegal trafficking that brought these items to the museum, according to a statement.
"It is a beautiful exhibition that tells a beautiful story, a story also of redemption for our stolen archaeological artefacts, which often find their way into private property or even international museums", exhibition co-curator Massimo Osanna, Director of National Museums at Italy's Culture Ministry, tells the Associated Press' Francesco Sportelli. "Thanks to the work of the public prosecutor's office and the police, together with the ministry, [these artefacts] are finally coming home and to light."
Strict laws govern the ownership of archaeological artefacts in Italy. Looting has been happening for centuries, but today's criminals have turned to advanced technologies- including sonar, drones and underwater metal detectors-to pluck treasure from shipwrecks and other ancient sites beneath the Mediterranean Sea, per the AP.
The exhibition begins with a history of collecting, which has long fueled illegal excavations and trafficking. Visitors learn about international markets and law enforcement, important court cases and the stories of looted items that haven't yet been recovered.
