Police in Italy say they have recovered a 2,000-year-old Egyptian sphinx stolen from a cemetery near Rome, about to be smuggled out of the country.
Found in a greenhouse of all places...
Not one of the more "ancient" Sphinxe's but from the Ptolemaic era.
The artricle is here, but I have covered all the key points, just that Journo's use lots of padding to tell the same story....
