Five frescoed stone slabs stolen from a tomb in the ancient city of Paestum and trafficked by a notorious artifact smuggler went on display in Italy on Thursday after a 10-year investigation.

歷經10年的追查後,在古城帕埃斯圖姆古墓遭竊、並經惡名昭彰的文物大盜非法販運的5個壁畫石板,週四在義大利展出。

Police were led to the pieces, all dating from around 400 BC, after an international trafficker known as "The Captain" died in a road accident, leaving thousands of photographs of archaeological finds in his car.

國際文物大盜「隊長」在一場車禍中身亡之後,在車上遺留數千張考古發現照片,警方才得以找到這些可追溯至西元前400年的石板。

A police squad dedicated to tracking down art and artifacts dug up illegally from Italy’s numerous ancient sites traced the slabs to the Italian-Swiss border and brought them to Rome.

一個專責追回義大利多處古蹟非法盜採文物的警隊,在義大利與瑞士的邊界追蹤到這些石板,將其帶回羅馬。

The frescoes show a noble lady and her slave girls, a triumphant warrior on horseback and a young armed man walking with a donkey. Each slab has a ragged crack across the middle, having been cut in half to make smuggling easier.

壁畫上是一名貴族女子與其女僕,一名戰士騎馬凱旋而歸,以及一名武裝年輕男子與一頭驢子信步而走。每個石板中間都有裂痕,乃是為了走私方便而被切成一半。
