An ancient Greek ring with a beautiful design of two sphinxes has been returned to its museum in Rhodes after being removed during WW II. [Interestingly, the Island of Rhodes is 225 miles (360 Km) from the southeast coast of Greek mainland but only 11 miles (18 km) from the southern shore of Turkey.]
