Egypt museum gets back five stolen artefacts

"Four of the recovered pieces were in good condition," the statement said, but one statue of a deity in the form of a ram was broken into pieces.
Robbers raided several warehouses around the country, including one in the Egyptian Museum, after an uprising that toppled longtime leader Hosni Mubarak gave way to looting and insecurity.
An antiquities official said last week that 800 relics stolen by armed robbers from a warehouse east of Cairo were still missing.
Roughly 300 artefacts, which include pieces from Pharaonic, Roman and Islamic periods, were recovered, he said.
