Two 4,000-year-old works will be returned to Iraq

The United States will hand over to Iraq two valuable works smuggled out of Iraq.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from Iraqi Foreign Ministry spokesman Ahmad al-Sahhaf.

He said both works, which date back 4,000 years, will be handed over to the Iraqi Consulate General in Los Angeles on January 20.

"The first is a cuneiform tablet from the ancient Sumerian city of Ur, and the second is a fragment of cuneiform from the ancient Babylonian period."
