Egypt moves unearthed 3,000-year-old statue to Cairo museum
The Egyptian authorities moved on early Thursday morning the recently unearthed three-millennia-old statue believed to be of ancient King Ramses II to the Egyptian Museum in downtown Cairo, official MENA news agency reported.
The report said that the 8.5-ton colossus was moved by the armed forces in cooperation with the ministry of antiquities to be initially reassembled and restored at the Cairo museum before being transferred to its final destination at the Grand Egyptian Museum.
The 26-foot quartzite statue is believed to be originally located at the undiscovered temple of King Ramses II near the Sun Temples in an area of ancient Heliopolis.
King Ramses II is one of the oldest Pharaohs and the third of the 19th Dynasty. He ruled ancient Egypt for 66 years, until he was over 90, from 1279 to 1213 BC.
ExploreTube | Egyptian Museum (Cairo)
One of the world’s most important collections of ancient artefacts, the Egyptian Museum takes pride of place in Downtown Cairo, on the north side of Midan Tahrir. Inside the great domed, oddly pinkish building, the glittering treasures of Tutankhamun and other great pharaohs lie alongside the grave goods, mummies, jewellery, eating bowls and toys of Egyptians whose names are lost to history.
To walk around the museum is to embark on an adventure through time.
Some display cards have become obsolete as new discoveries have busted old theories. And the collection rapidly outgrew its sensible layout, as, for instance, Tutankhamun’s enormous trove and the tomb contents of Tanis were both unearthed after the museum opened, and then had to be shoehorned into the space. Now more than 100,000 objects are wedged into about 15,000 sq metres. Like the country itself, the museum is in flux. Most objects are still on display, although some are being moved to the Grand Egyptian Museum. While some rooms are being refurbished, the objects are deposited elsewhere in the museum. This museum will remain a major sight, but it is not yet clear when the Grand will open and what will remain here.
The current museum has its origins in several earlier efforts at managing Egypt’s ancient heritage, beginning in 1835 when Egyptian ruler Mohammed Ali banned the export of antiquities. French architect Mariette’s growing collection, from 35 dig sites, bounced around various homes in Cairo until 1902, when the current building was erected, in a suitably prominent position in the city. There it has stood, in its original layout, a gem of early museum design.
Until 1996, museum security involved locking the door at night. When an enterprising thief stowed away overnight and helped himself to treasures, the museum authorities installed alarms and detectors, at the same time improving the lighting on many exhibits. During the 2011 revolution, the museum was broken into and a few artefacts went missing. To prevent further looting, activists formed a human chain around the building to guard its contents. By most reports, they were successful.
The Egyptian Museum in Cairo; Ancient Egyptian Antiquities
The Egyptian Museum, Cairo, Egypt. Egypt travel attractions and destinations to reveal with us.
Traveling to Egypt is all about visiting the museums, the Pyramids, the old places, as well as getting the chance to walk through the streets, eat the Egyptian food, enjoy a day by the Nile, and at the same time give yourself the chance to get introduced to the nightlife of this city.
From the most famous Egyptian touristic attractions, the Egyptian Museum is on top of the list, through which you will see the historical Pharaonic pieces. The Egyptian Museum is in Tahrir square, which is considered the middle of the city, Cairo, and thus you will not just enjoy watching the old gems, but will also get the chance to see the old Egypt.
The Egyptian museum is famously called the Museum of Egypt المتحف المصري and it carries a good amount of Egyptian ancient antiquities, about 120,000 items; some of them are already on display while others are kept in store rooms.
This is a must see and visit place during the trip to Egypt because there are different stories to hear inside about the Gods and Goddesses of ancient Egyptian civilization. You might even love the stories that you just wish you could visit the place once again and go through the same things millions of times.
The most important thing about the Egyptian museum in Cairo is to never miss the hall of the mummies in order to see the superior quality of the life that the ancient Egyptians used to live and have an evidence for that.
The moment you enter the Egyptian museum, you will feel that you have been taken and transformed to the old age due to the sculptures that are found inside and the different things you will get the chance to see.
A lot of Egyptian artwork and Egyptian artifacts to come across in this place. We recommend that you either get a trustworthy tour guide who could help you with knowing more about the place and getting the chance to reveal all the stories, or else bring yourself a book or an article from the internet that will help you to know as much as possible, but never wander the place just watching; read everything that is written there.
There are audio guides which you could buy from the kiosk in front of the foyer for 20 EGP and which will be very useful as your guide inside.
There's great history behind this place, not just the Egyptian artifacts, but the mummies, the masks, and actually everything about this place shows how the Egyptians were so good when it came to living like real kings and queens.
We recommend that you take your water with you because it is a little bit hot inside and you might find nowhere to bring yourself water inside during the journey. We also recommend that you take something that will tell you more about the artifacts there because some don't have label and you might find yourself standing in front of something you know nothing about.
Egypt history is like no other place in the world, this country of peace carries a lot to tell the world and the Egyptian museum is where the story starts. The grand Egyptian museum will tell you about the 7 thousand years of history that this country carried and that is the reason why it is considered one of the most important museums to visit in the world.
The Egyptian museum working hours are everyday from 9 AM until 7 PM. The Egyptian museum entrance fee differ according to what you are going to see inside; general admission is for 30 EGP for non-Egyptians, the royal mummies room is for 100 EGP, the centennial gallery for 10 EGP, and all these are reduced by half if you are a student.
Cameras are not allowed inside the place and you will be checked for that by the gates, so you will never get the chance to take photos inside and keep the memory of seeing those artifacts with you. You could only take photos from the outside to prove that you have been there and visited this important museum of Egypt.
This place is so famous, you will be able to reach it by taxi, by the metro, or even by the other transportation tools - but we don't recommend any other way than these two.
The Nile is only five minutes walk away from the Egyptian Museum so you could go for a walk there after you get done with your trip in the museum. There are different things to do in Egypt in general and a lot of things to see, so always plan to see as much as your stay allows you to.
When you visit Egypt, you should plan to visit Muhammad Ali Mosque
You should also visit The National Museum of Egypt
You should give yourself the chance to go to a tour through the Pharaonic Village
And even go to Al Moez street
Egypt - Mummies
(2 Mar 1994) Egypt reopened a display of 3,500 year-old royal mummies on
Tuesday (1/3) hoping the remains of its pharaonic ancestors would
help attract tourists scared away by Moslem militant attacks. The
display of 11 mummies, put under wraps by the late president Anwar
Sadat in 1980, was unveiled by Prime Minister Atef Sedki. It
includes ancient leaders like Ramses II, the military pharaoh who
ruled Egypt for 67 years until his death in 1224 BC, as well as
three of the pharaohs' queens. Another 16 mummies are being
prepared for public display some time next year. The mummies,
discovered in southern Egypt in the late 19th century, are kept in
glass cases in a single, dimly-lit room. They lie on their backs,
gnarled and wrinkled hands crossed over their chests, partly
covered in linen or sack-cloth. The dark skin on their faces is
drawn taught over sharp aquiline features. Most appear peaceful,
with closed eyelids and tight expressionless smiles.
Mummification, a ritual burial practice for the wealthy, began
with ancient Egyptians who believed in the after-life. Few of the
mummies were discovered in their original tombs, which were
desecrated thousands of years ago and stripped of their lavish
contents by tomb robbers. Most were transferred at least 2,500
years ago by priests to large communal graves. The largest one,
containing the mummies of 40 Pharaohs, queens and nobles, was
uncovered in 1876 near the Valley of the Kings where the
undisturbed tomb of King Tutankhamun was later discovered. The
mummies were ordered locked away in 1980 by Sadat, who said it was
morally improper to display the remains of Pharaohs whose dignity
should be preserved. But Abdelhalim Noureddin, chairman of the
Egyptian Antiquities Organisation said last month the display
should entice badly-needed visitors. Moslem militant attacks
against foreign tourists began in 1992. They have been a serious
blow to the tourist industry, which once brought in about $3
billion a year. Officials say the violence cost the country about
$900 million last year.

STORYLINE:
Egyptian soldiers entered the Egyptian Museum in Cairo on Saturday to secure it from looters, as anti-government protests continued in the capital in defiance of a curfew.
The museum is home to priceless ancient artifacts, some dating back five-thousand years.
Many artefacts lay damaged on the floor, but officials said nothing had been stolen.
Early on Saturday morning, soldiers secured the museum and its grounds, located near some of the most intense of the mass anti-government protests in the capital.
Before the army arrived, young Egyptians - some armed with truncheons grabbed off the police - created a human chain at the museum's front gate to prevent looters from making off with any of the artefacts.
Secretary General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, Zahi Hawass, said the would-be looters only managed to vandalise two mummies, ripping their heads off.
They also cleared out the museum gift shop.
He said the museum's prized King Tutankhamun exhibit, which includes the boy pharaoh's gold death mask, had not been damaged and was safe.
However, the museum's contents could still damaged by the potential collapse of a neighbouring building gutted by fire, Hawass said.
The ruling party headquarters building next door to the museum was still in flames on Saturday, a day after protesters torched it during the demonstrations.
Fears of looters have prompted authorities elsewhere to take precautions to secure antiquities at other sites.
