Sculpture head from Roman era seized in southern Turkey

The head of a woman sculpture dates back to the Roman era.

The head of a female sculpture has been seized in the southern province of Burdur.

Following a warning about cultural and natural smuggling, the provincial gendarmerie command stopped a car in the Bucak district’s Beşkonak village, discovering a 5-by-5-centimeter head of a female sculpture dating back to the Roman era inside the vehicle.

The sculpture was subsequently delivered to the Burdur Museum Directorate.

Suspect R.S. was released pending trial following questioning.
