8:24 pm
a t t is a wonderful advertisement for egyptian culture help him. she is the best ambassador for egypt and egyptian culture imaginable. jacob difficulty was there a very different perspective. so, and it's of course, important to us that you just want the addiction embassy group see this museum, which not only wouldn't have had teaching here, but also with other examples of ancient egyptian culture as they are placed. and that they also use it, the injection embassy sometimes has receptions here and i think that's a very important collaboration. some countries take us to them. yeah. of cover these are, they all task is to preserve the pieces of world culture that a house to you. we must protect for the items and maintain them as best we can on the highest. the way i see is that means of transport. i have out some of the question would be to teach. i'm punch punch.

8:29 pm
location was, this is what was the house peasy logistics by all 976 house, 347 to room 19. even december 6th, 1912. and then it says he painted fast as a queen with smooth get caught wick, flush pots, reddish yellow lips, red nostrils, strongly deepened, eyes one missing is p, as nic muscle. strongly indicated, 2 very like wrinkles leading up from the in a corner of each y downward. that's the fluid. it's at the time is usually the bush out, the gym and archaeologist quietly requoted his sensational fined in his excavation channel. he already had an inkling of what he had found he would do everything in his power to bring nesa gigi into german hands for good.
8:30 pm
when the fine was divvied up late to the, the site was the scope to swap shop, and how many valuable fines for the archeologist. the excavation was financed by patron james simone. the general in the archives of via gyptian museum in berlin, contains bush child, sketched the room in which the best of nefertiti was found a few pages on a small drawing of this discovery of the century, the following. the colors as if recently applied. okay, excellent. work well,
8:31 pm
no point describing it. you have to see it. and i want to know if you are sad about the fact that the, or the fonts of amman now know for it to connect to and it's a draw now in the lean or so i'm sad about the, the, for the bus. but i hope that all the objects that important object, which is i put in museum outside of egypt, within the back to the motherland egypt. which would be the total for, for the addiction and from the community. for that he thought was so i put in the hidden amount of 9, the east bank that it could be very close to the city. since i'm young, looked as authorities tend to have no present ticket these and they start to my
8:32 pm
work as of curious. yeah. and doesn't speak to it, and they love this work. so i try to give my best and all my you for the 2 sessions this feel done. so if there's a special needs, you know, and i think in the future it would be fine if it was that people do like because i think it was over something good for the, for the antiquities and 80 percent. and it said to really see new family, but that actually being here doesn't help me learn more about town, dot facebook or shot to act on behalf of the gym and oriental society back then shift any book, meaning what it does, give me a sense of how tasks were distributed around 1900. you see by assume the dash, the great britain was responsible for infrastructure like a 100, then you have to put the management of antiquities. was traditionally in front tens in e s. l. results to be a full se potties from even considered egypt. its door to its 1st born at that
8:33 pm
time would defeat the plant had done so since napoleonic times semplex or now if you it's a great privilege for me to be able to revive the knowledge. if this period, if you the more i play going example village that really happened in egypt back then, benedict's of was travels to paris. the institute of phones is now home to historical documents of the french and to quit use authority. what will be archives tell her about the discovery of egyptian antiquities under the french flag fronts granted the license to dig in a large reading room. benedicts of walk is allowed to read the historical correspondence between german archaeologist lew depo, shot and french authorities. let us tell her how the best of nefertiti was discovered and eventually found its way to berlin. her research began after the
8:34 pm
events on to her rear square in 2011 system, oklahoma just cannot seem to cut off hub on the sheet symbol. don't lose yes. with democratic requiring what we now know is the arabs spring state that momentum and susie as him for democracy with those demonstrations by young people entirely, a square that he was inspired to contribute to the democratic movement. asians agency on aging sab, somewhat not easily in a moment of solidarity while her move on the moon. cut deep. okay. dix predicament? 52. i wanted to share my knowledge of how the boss doesn't f a t t who is so important to egypt. this collective memory came to burnett and really speak to slot . did they? did you forget the time when egypt was not independent? doesn't pedagogy, did you meet the bus on the field on this morning? the egypt and fonts have
8:35 pm
a lengthy history. the country on the nile suddenly quote to europe's attention. during the podium subscription campaign in 1798 and the battle of the pyramids. egypt was to become a french province, but never did. what remained was a close relationship between the 2. the, the french influence can still be felt in cairo today. the stock exchange district was modeled on paris in the 19th century. formerly, however, egypt was under british control 110 years ago. it was not until 1922 that the country became an independent kingdom. sewell chefs, you can imagine someone probably just get a vader upon you again shortly before the outbreak of world war one. egypt was
8:36 pm
divided vertically up. everything above ground belongs to england because egypt was a petition protector and sneezing all roads. the water supply the seas, they were all under british administration exclusive and everything below the ground was french because egypt antiquities also receives, had been in french turns for several decades. this division meant that the egyptians themselves had little to say and anything below ground coffee gyptian egyptology, did not yet exist these delusion. egypt since the packed up and taken ancient egyptian culture left the country on mass and crates, bound to paris, london, berlin, and new york. in 1912,
8:37 pm
the french antiquities authority passed them, you know, all fines which would be divided up. exactly. one half egypt, the other for those who funded the excavation you'd think beauchamp didn't like this arrangement and he wrote elected to the director general of the diction antiquities authority. who? yeah, the hey, i get an idea direct to general mr. lewis and this suit assessment was here today to develop adults. the see is fine when the full, the number to do hectic houston, if the division what she exact was obviously embarrassing to him. but he persevered amiably so as not to significantly damage scientific interests in the process to the associated with. this put, find the belong together, still have to be separated, is not his fault. this is due to the new regulation,
8:38 pm
know which, as i know, we both regret including lice, but that was the location culture heritage foundation in bending now owns the signs that were awarded to james team on the excavations finance. in 1913, the touchingly delicate statue of the queen and a sin, wrote many of the pieces are working models, unfinished specimens from the sculptors workshop. but nothing comes close to the impact of the color. so queen legends have even a much about and if it teaches exodus it, all shop cheat was nitro t. t, intentionally hidden partially visible on the german part of the site. the case of
8:39 pm
photographic documentation from the time refutes this legend was the best smidge with clay to conceal its value. maybe it was actually stolen or 9. so with this because it's just your log of duty, he could have been bogged almost no. the legal situation and all the regulations were at that time such is that we cannot say it was stolen with this to and these cheapest rotations, but never a t. t was smeared with clay placed in a cardboard box and a dark corner where no lights found losing the match. simply nonsense. if we see the half dozen wonderful photos from different angles that were handed over before they sat down together to divide up to find it before, that's how it was done back then. and we have to accept that done as soon as i can just respond to my we have to find a way to move forward and you always object to, but to completely undo history. and i don't think that's the right way to look up
8:40 pm
to the couldn't talk to some stuff to cubic nefertiti is in the noise museum as a result of a historical mistake. and we cannot change history because it happens, but we can cortex this mistake. monica hannah's commitment to protecting the world's cultural heritage has into an international reputation for her research in addiction. archives has led to believe that the little was broken when the find was defined it up in 1913. and i think according even to the law, this was practice in 1912, uh no, uh, mazda piece is what allows you to, and even if they did the front tire. so that was contested. either pet that i had to reimburse the excavator the money necessity that he paid for the big exchange of that object. and both being on the committee that was supposed to protect the
8:41 pm
heritage of egypt should have known this. and he definitely knew this. and he probably starts to heighten the facility in the way that the adoption officers would not suspect the. so here was, is an egyptologist just loved to quote him, the media savvy scientist has been the face of addiction archaeology for decades. he was one's head of the antiquities authority and introduced national leaders and celebrities to egypt, high culture. he fights for the return of cultural heritage from abroad. he to down to the get it to have the division of the fines. * how can fully not make decisions about the laws of egypt, the low was low in that time, if you discover and in fact, whom you're going to take it out to be sure. if you discover a statute of
8:42 pm
a king or queen made of limestone, you're going to take it out to you. so that was the law. how would this been room to change? i don't have no right to do that. tension has been building over the past several years between egypt and gemini, one voice, and this post colonial debate is your going to and africa. scala based and handbook . he's looking at the significance of colonialism in german society and wants germany to come clean about its violent imperial history. isn't that editions done for me? i can dismissed to accepting this. it is actually acetate, an acceptable desmond, its a from pathetic that people result to saying it would have been permitted. now it was the right that the strongest sacrament of this volunteer between one and they will all keep on the phone, dividing up the fines meant that european rulers in egypt gave themselves the right to take it gyptian antiquities out of the country. i do too. sure,
8:43 pm
i'm to prepare and also longest the if you little know your boss so you will never know your future. and therefore, for us nursing and government affairs, those people they did the we was mad justice center through to. and this why they the to the peak and everything. i'm also the belief of the, of the life belt the ship. could that belief made them to leave to us this gates organization? i think this is not according to have or the exception of to extinguish the museum stuff, but i think this is the cause to have what's the significance for addiction past this? and as you said, the transparency of facts of history to yes documents. and i can,
8:44 pm
i think the most important because if you have not the transparency you have right now, right. exactly what you say. yes. african people have not the i think my presentation was never to see goes to i comes from the model number 16 my father comes from. so i go up with the image and the city of the missing queen that you can see the images everywhere. so you can see that i've clicked those everywhere the age since it's been living within the age of some they deal with women, go forward facilitated to as i know, my grandmother herself went once and swam in the lake of cost backup. she goes
8:45 pm
pregnant, so that is this idea that the samples are very much and i, i live not this, this face of the museum of an archaeological sites. and i think the with should open the eyes in, in looking at such a concert to continue with you that does not conform to the intellectual way more than people can identify with the posts. shortly after the discovery of the best of nif for t t, the queen became the focus of political intrigue. of a tug of war began between egypt, germany and france. benedicts of was found something interesting during her research and from the nefertiti file from the 19 twenty's. the dispute over the location of the best, which continues to the state, emerged from franco german enmity after the 1st world war.
8:46 pm
she used old newspaper articles, alleges to recount the 1st time egypt oscar for the bus back a century ago. the gyptian mazda piece was not shown to the public until 1924, and especially design hole in the noise museum. photos was circulated beforehand to spunk, curiosity and publicity. the queen became an object of desire. and the french regret at that generosity in granting the bus to the germans see that they didn't accept it. you know, if you know, if the bus different, if a t c did not return to cairo, the germans, the prussian spelling would never again receive permission to dig. gosh, that st. blackmail they would not get upon match if an f a t t did not return. to me, it seems this blackmail was fed by the hatred that existed on the french side towards jem and egyptology. they argued in the name of the egyptians in the name of
8:47 pm
addiction, cultural heritage, cortex only. but some one did you see on the, the germans and the french ultimately made a deal in exchange for the past 2 statues, from cairo, what to go to berlin. one of them was a renew for an influential court officials, a prime example of ancient egyptian art, but not very graceful character tourist immediately began to take a is the spots time that already been fee is several years earlier that nefertiti might just be a temporary visitor in fallon, an artist had begun work on a copy in 1926. it was to be better than the original technicians at pasco used. this was almost happened when the date had been sent, but in 1933, the very announcement hit the intervene to stop the project,
8:48 pm
which had been agreed during the weimar republic to the last key. stoke city mouse gave it the money for the press claims that he had fallen in love with queen f, a t t that present july because he must get it to me. i moved and i haven't even a heads up planned, a separate building for the best. an oriental museum, opposite today's museum island. the 2nd world war put an end to these plans for protection. the queen was packed up again and disappeared into an auntie across the bunk. it wasn't until decades later, when museum island was redesigned, the best of nefertiti returned to where the story of its appropriation began to the noise museum. the
8:49 pm
violin now presents the wheels according to the rules of european museum. ok? she staged as a mega attraction. what remains invisible, however, is the eventful history of how long johnny the good. oh, all fun. human like you whole. so here from young a chip sions. this is yes, of course. this is an object that we always want to my room for me. but on the other hand, you also see what she symbolizes here. as an ambassador,
8:50 pm
she has also become an object of identification here. and if you go to them, that's extraordinary because she's an object of identification full. yes. actually 2 coaches by quinton governess. this arguments but not for city is an impossible, i think makes me very, very angry because an investor that entails and the rustic exchange, i have not seen a company that's only samsung best with it and does not receive one. and so where is the crown of free? but if they have gross income, it or we do not have that way. there's an album to do to of kind of germany kind of with it isn't. so it's ridiculous that they say never see through. it's like you're not talking to 5 year on the you know, it's a piece of information. and some boy, this is miss dundas,
8:51 pm
me because she was to me a symbol of a kind of grief and politics of representation that the global, most appropriate in recent years of food. and it was an attempt to work with an icon that has great power to tell a different story, each descriptive. it's not just about nesa t t not then not. now, it's more of a launch in our table. that's what i think is it the question of ownership needs to be clearly defined or to speak the most will with and if a t t all the other objects to then exhibited or located system that's not the point to show. don't get his gun. it's of a bunch of who decides with a location because that's and i think that would have to be clarified. and in most cases that would clearly be the societies of origin. yeah. and or take nora boundary. use the 3 d scan to that is the actual image of an f, a t t, as part of an off project
8:52 pm
the, the digital and f a t t was put online in 2015. it attracted a lot of attention. and it was reported on worldwide and it again raised question of who owns nefertiti, the that he must the subject of the company and who has the power to control the ok and as and why it is clinging to the old imperial position to live at this moment and see it would have been the best scenario i can see now. is it the objects of borrowed? yes. all that they travel and this is mostly the rest. it's all except in some individual tyson, that's when did you off my, what was it? but at the end of the day, these options must no longer belong to these powerful institutions. and the global most men do, and these institutions must no longer control the hell and of these other was not
8:53 pm
much would have changed and touch issues. and the, just a stone's throw away from the great pyramids stands, the gigantic new grand egyptian. you see in this and vicious project was integrated into the tourist infrastructure of cairo. before it was even finished. it created high expectations, the, the grand egyptian museum highlights the importance of the ferry on it, costs to the country today. actually it was very
8:54 pm
important for us to filter the word that we don't care about our buttons and we show our money minutes in a great condition. and actually, i remember i made the debate, was of that act of the get t and the attic through v in the arctic museum. they would say that don't send off faxes. come is, they don't have good museums. this was the export is to the debate. and i said to them that we do have museums in egypt, and i bit the in the museum in any place in europe or america to show that even we other country that we need money for living. but we deserve our money. which ones are just these kinds of people to me, this whole debate about museums as preserving institutions, of course, that you don't want it to be constantly criticized because days, you know, it wasn't an easy phase for the whole of society hasn't changed in the last 5 to 10 years from the great opportunity that museums and cultural institutions have today
8:55 pm
is that we really have to work together in an increasingly connected world. it is to so i'm going to develop a way forward to that there is real sharing. i think that's the goal, that's just if we return a few objects and that's it depicted to them for me, i'm not much has been achieved. and he said, we just utilized the museum as an institution is finally being put into question of to 200 years new topics. restitution. participation, dakota nice. ation. have triggered rethink the focus that traditionally been on the work of off, but it's diverse relationships often remain hidden. voice news and 1st of all we need is a completely new museum concept. namely, museums that no longer showcase the grades net sky via the greatness of the art business or patronage that makes it possible for these objects to be in berlin in paris or in london. but instead, focus on the history of this exploitation did use the history of this relationship,
8:56 pm
this colonial relationship. in other words, we need a complete re imagining of museums where the originals are no longer important. antonia about please remember, speaks a nora l boundary is already way ahead. her number is t t belongs to everyone, the she travel to the does it with has 3 d copy and brought it back to egypt. but that's not true . the all just also buried the best in the sand. let's ends, which is ultimately it's plastic 3 days. it will be there for millennium, which means that this boss could be found in 10 years some way. they are in this hara, or in 3000 years. it might still be that was the benefit kind of counting, the mentor, always taking everything up and wanting to own it on the
8:57 pm
kids don't suppose do for tv. so the question arises whether the bus different f a t t should be returned or not. my own so would be we must take the rest of to sion request, serious lankin, and we must learn to listen boots one true to these and not political demands. we have to see them as a cultural need, a cultural dom mom's should be taking these to moms seriously would be a stop. the best one when we talk about cultural heritage, there are no easy answers. those let those who need to do so fall the owners of the pieces have mostly disregarded the mom's restitution peaceful underneath that slight. and you ethical approach is needed to do bundled institutional just took,
