Caligula s lost mosaic returned to Roman lake where it first disappeared

1 minute read Mercedes Ortuño Lizarán Nemi, Italy, Mar 11 (efe-epa).- In the sixties, Italy lost one of the mosaics that embellished the great ships of the emperor Caligula in the sacred lake of Nemi, near Rome. The piece was found decades later in New York, being used as a tea table, and has now been recovered thanks to a series of fortunate coincidences. The relic was presented Thursday at the Museum of the Ships of Nemi, bringing an end to an odyssey that began when it was lost in the 1960s. The lost mosaic of Caligula dates back to the first century A.D., the period in which the controversial emperor lived, who was assassinated in the year 41 by his own praetorian guards on Palatine Hill, after less than four years in power that have been  remembered throughout history.

In September 2017, the department for cultural heritage protection of the Italian Carabinieri police, in collaboration with New York district attorney, managed to sequester the mosaic from the house of an Italian-American woman who brought it in the states illegally many decades earlier.Paolo Santalucia/AP
