flag France returns 3,500 ancient artifacts to Ethiopia, including tools up to 2 million years old.

flag France has returned about 3,500 archaeological artifacts to Ethiopia, dating back up to 2 million years. flag These items, including prehistoric stone tools, were excavated from the Melka Kunture site and held by France since the 1980s for research. flag The repatriation is seen as a continuation of cooperation between the two countries in archaeology, not as a restitution, since the artifacts were never part of French public collections.
