looted
Stripped by thieves
Looted is the past tense of loot—to steal goods, especially during war, riots, or disasters when normal order has broken down.
Soldiers looted villages; crowds looted stores after the hurricane.
The word can also describe removing valuables from any unguarded situation: The tomb had been looted centuries ago.
Looted goods are the stolen items themselves.
