Egypt Politely Asks For Its Priest Back After Scotland Spends A Century Showing Him To School Trips
Egyptian authorities have requested the repatriation of the mummified remains of the priest Nekht, recently removed from public view, in what promises to be a complicated conversation and what everyone else is calling fair enough. The museums cited their duty of care towards the deceased, which for the past century had mostly meant not letting him leave. Nekht himself was unavailable for comment, having been unavailable for comment for roughly 4,000 years.
