You forgot Persephone. :)
She was the one who was abducted (not retroducted) by the Turk. The farmers of Eleusis want the statue of St. Dimitra back. Every spring, they would honor her by heaping manure around the statue to ensure the fertility of their crops. And it worked! (That's retroduction.) And by the way, whether or not the Turk actually abducted Persephone, a Turkish official was complicit in the abduction of the statue. He was bribed by a gift of a telescope to authorize the removal of the statue. John
