Canadian woman returns 'cursed' artefacts stolen from Pompeii

Canadian woman returns 'cursed' artefacts stolen from PompeiiA package containing artefacts stolen from the ancient site of Pompeii was delivered to a travel agent in the southern Italian city, with a letter saying they were “cursed.” The letter, written in English by a Canadian woman named Nicole, said the relics were stolen in Pompeii in 2005, during a visit to the archaeological site. “Take them back, please, they bring bad luck,” the woman wrote. The package contained two mosaic pieces, a piece of ceramics and two parts of an amphora. Pompeii is one of Italy's most visited ancient sites. A sudden eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD buried the town, which was largely preserved under ashes.
