- 2:23is returning to Turkey from the Museum of Fine Arts.
- 2:27This artifact, dating back to between 550 and 450 BC, had been displayed at the museum
- 2:35since its acquisition in 1982.
- 2:39Recent investigations revealed similarities between this necklace and some jewelry found
- 2:45at an archaeological site in western Turkey.
- 2:49As pressure mounts on museums to repatriate stolen artifacts, this return symbolizes the
- 2:54importance of international cooperation in preserving cultural heritage, according to
- 3:00officials from Turkey's Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
- 3:09Now on to sports.

- 3:38with one touchdown, but couldn't outmatch San Francisco's offensive firepower.

- 3:57Meanwhile, in Green Bay, the Packers are not placing Jordan Love on injured reserve, even
- 4:03after he suffered a sprained MCL late in their week one loss to the Eagles.
- 4:09The Packers expect a faster recovery for Love, but in the meantime, newly acquired Malik
- 4:15Willis will step in as the starting quarterback.

- 4:24season.

- 4:30Colts just 20 days after joining the team.
