From Syria with love: A 1,900-year-old statue of a woman from the city of Palmyra will go on display at the Israel Museum - Voila! culture

The ancient sculpture, “Portrait of a Demorite Woman” from the second century A.D., arrived in the Land of Israel at the beginning of the 20th century, and will now be exhibited for the first time in the National Museum for International Women's Day. It is a reminder of the glorious culture of the city, whose remains were vandalized by ISIS forces in 2015
