A 1,900-year-old Roman grave marker, stolen after WWII, was found in a New Orleans yard and is being returned to Italy.
A 1,900-year-old Roman grave marker, inscribed with the name Sextus Congenius Verus, was discovered in March 2025 in a New Orleans backyard during a yard cleanup.
Initially mistaken for a rock, the artifact was confirmed by experts as a genuine Roman funerary stone from Civitavecchia, Italy, that went missing after a WWII bombing.
Its journey to Louisiana remains unclear, but authorities suspect it was taken during postwar chaos.
The FBI has taken custody, and efforts are underway to return it to Italy.
