A 2,700-year-old ivory incense spoon plundered from a site in the occupied West Bank — seized in late 2021 by the Manhattan District Attorney's office as part of a plea deal with billionaire hedge fund manager Michael Steinhardt, displayed at the Palestinian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities in the West Bank city of Bethlehem, Thursday, Jan. 19, 2023. Earlier this month, American officials handed over the artifact to the Palestinians in what the U.S. State Department's Office of Palestinian Affairs said was "the first event event of such repatriation" by the U.S. to the Palestinians.
