The first, a replica of the Temple of Bel, has been brought back to life through state-of-the-art technology.<\/p>\n
The second, a funeral bust that had been looted from Palmyra during the terrorist attacks on the ancient city and was later recovered in Italy by the Carabinieri\u2019s Command for the Protection of Cultural Heritage, and will be sent back to Syria when conditions permit, according to the same statement.<\/p>\n
The Incontro di Civilta Association is also holding a photography exhibition at the Egyptian Academy in Rome named \u201cThe Day After: Shadows of Heritage,\u201d which will depict devastated cultural heritage in five countries of the Middle East, pairing before and after photographs to witness the scale of that destruction.<\/p>\n
