Egypt asks US museum to return gold mummy mask

Figures! Egypt is so politically correct. They have all of this concern for the mummy, and yet the daddy gets left out of the picture COMPLETELY!

You have a point. I learned recently that no valve was place upon Egyptian antiquity until Napoleon took control of the country in the early 1800's. Up until westerner archaeologist told the native Egyptian that these relics were valuable and offered money for them the Egyptians treated them like garbage.

The only reason the Egyptians want all the ancient Egyptian stuff back now is to extort money from westerns to view/study the stuff.
