Robbery at Ancient Olympia museum

Armed robbers have stolen dozens of artefacts from a museum in Ancient Olympia - the birthplace of the Olympics, Greek officials say.

Local mayor Thymios Kotzias told media two masked men had broken into the Archaeological Museum of Olympia after overpowering the sole guard.

He said items of "incalculable" value had been stolen, but gave no details.

Culture Minister Pavlos Geroulanos has tendered his resignation, state television reported.

The museum is seen as one of the most important cultural sites in Greece.

They won't be turning up in a German museum then? :tup:

Only one guard?

Speaking of thefts from Greece, have the Parthenon marbles been returned yet?

I hope those artifacts are recovered and returned to their rightful owners, Greek bond holders.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.
