An African country has received 48 ancient treasures that were previously in the US. These items were found to have been illegally trafficked into the country. The FBI was involved in the discovery of the illegal trafficking.

Further details about the return of the ancient treasures are available from Business Insider Africa. The return of the treasures follows an investigation into their origins and how they entered the US.

The fact that the treasures were returned suggests that efforts to combat illegal trafficking of cultural items are ongoing, but specific details about this case are not provided here.
