Greece repatriates two ancient marble vases from Switzerland, dating to the 4th century BC.

Greece's Culture Ministry announces the repatriation of two ancient Greek marble vases from Switzerland, each more than 2,000 years old and decorated with relief sculptures. The vases, dating to the 4th century BC, would have marked family graves near Athens, but their precise locations are unlikely to be found due to their illicit excavation and export. The return of these artifacts is considered a "top political priority" for Greece's Culture Ministry.
