The city of Pompeii(庞贝古城) in Italy gets hundreds of thousands of tourists every year. It is one of Italy's biggest tourist places. Most tourists leave the 2,000-year-old city with happy memories, photos and souvenirs, but some take more. They take some small historic objects. Many people are now regretting this. They say the objects are cursed and have filled their lives with bad luck. An official at Pompeii said he has had hundreds of objects from across the world returned. Many people apologized and wrote stories about their bad luck. 

    The official, Massimo Osanna, said one man from Latin America wrote about his life being full of bad lucks after he got home from Italy with a small stone from Pompeii. A man from Spain returned five bags of objects, including a statue he took in 1987. He said that the statue had put "a curse on his whole family". Mr. Osanna now wants to set up an exhibition of all the letters he has received. He said the letters might be more interesting than the stolen objects.
