TL;DR Summary

Ancient Scythian artefacts, including a solid gold helmet and golden neck ornament, have been returned to Ukraine after a decade-long legal dispute over ownership rights. The artefacts were on loan to Amsterdam's Allard Pierson Museum when Russian troops seized and annexed Crimea in 2014. Both Ukraine and the museums in Russian-occupied Crimea claimed ownership, but the Dutch Supreme Court ruled in favor of Ukraine. The artefacts, considered part of Ukraine's national heritage, will be stored in the National Museum of History of Ukraine until the de-occupation of Crimea.
