This is the best summary I could come up with:


Artifacts from four Crimean museums, which had remained in the Netherlands following an exhibition in Amsterdam, have now all arrived in Kyiv.

The exhibition "Crimea: Gold and Secrets of the Black Sea" ran from February to August 2014 at the Allard Pierson Archaeological Museum in Amsterdam.

But it faced conflicting claims to the other artifacts, with both Ukraine and the museums in Russian-occupied Crimea declaring ownership.

After years of litigation in the Netherlands, a court ruled that the artifacts should be transferred to Ukraine and not to the Crimean museums.

The Scythians were an ancient nomadic equestrian people in the steppes north of the Black Sea, in what is now Ukraine and southern Russia.

Fedir Androshchuk says, "For its part, the museum will make every effort to preserve the artifacts and ensure that citizens and guests of Ukraine can see them."
