Turkey is requesting that this bronze sculpture head of Septimius Severus on display in Copenhagen be returned.

Earlier, a “headless” sculpture had been returned to Turkey from the Metropolitan Museum in New York. Both this sculpture head and the already-returned body had been presented together in an exhibit in 1979. Turkey insists that the sculpture head is part of the body returned and should be also returned.
