A MUST READ! Thief Returns Stolen Treasured Archaeological Stones After 20 Years With A Note That Read......................

According to Yahoo News, a thief who stole two archaeological treasures from an Israeli Museum returned them with a confessional note after apparently experiencing something extraordinary for 20 years. The 2,000-year-old sling stones were taken from the ancient city of Gamla on the Golan Heights in July 1995, the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) said. 

They were returned in a bag to the Museum of Islamic and Near Eastern Cultures in Israel's southern city of Beersheba, along with a note from the thief. The note, in Hebrew, read: "These are two Roman ballista balls from Gamla, from a residential quarter at the foot of the summit.

"I stole them in July 1995, and since then they have brought me nothing but trouble. Please, do not steal antiquities!" The thief did not elaborate on the nature of his or her bad luck. The IAA said almost 2,000 similar stones were found in Gamla.

They were used by Romans against the Jews who were trying to prevent the conquest of the hilltop city Historians said that this was not the first time stolen treasures had been returned.

One resident, from Tel Aviv, took back an ancient coffin which had taken pride of place in his bedroom - eventually noting its "morbid nature". A uk.news.yahoo.com extract.
