Does anyone think that the recovery of these artifacts will get one-tenth the play from the media that the looting of the Baghdad Museum received?
To: Ginifer
Outstanding...dedicated workers indeed!!!
To: Ginifer
It's nice to hear good news.
To: Ginifer
What a wonderful find! The archeologists of the world must be salivating. Yes, you're absolutely correct. This isn't big enough news for mainstream media. The media only prints anything that's puts the US in a bad light.

This is fantastic! It would have been a shame if all these artifacts had been lost. Bet these people feel like they are little kids on Christmas morning.

I think this qualifies for a GGG ping.

Some heroes turn the tide of battle. Others risk life and limb to rescue those in need.
And some quietly go above and beyond to save precious glimpses into the history of humanity, knowing they will never be recognized and rewarded for their actions.
Anyone can be a hero in their own way. All too few realize this achievement. Those that do have my respect.

This is really a good new story, thanks for posting. I hope that someday the story will come out about those who saved these artifacts

saw some of the saved Bactrian treasure in The Los Angeles Times story...
another case of Dubya and some good men (and gals) liberating a country
and giving it a chance to regain it's past.
And maybe a future, if they can keep it. (to steal from Ben Franklin)
