these they risk every thing john, do dar? asks activist journalist and politicians living and anxiety too much on my shoulders. but i have to hold this weight because i'm responsible for the future follow country for the people who are behind the bus. they move for their mission. people are nice to know what is happening there in our series guardians of truth watching it on youtube. dw documentary. i'm not saying that i love mastering. i've loved her since the beginning because of her character because of her courage and how she thinks. ready this reading, so today for nearly 4 decades she's thoughts piece for brings of freedom 0 home, then they run in spite of bob barry, government reprisals, an income if you look into how nice the 3 dots july,

29th on dw, the launch with the b without this a t t. what is this a t t belong to everyone? and both of these a t t had never left egypt a told her name means the beautiful one has come. she's timeless. and she speaks to us. she has been catholic, positioned, independent museums, and dismiss just as much back cove. she's been the subject of disputes between countries since she was discovered, and if a t t, an object of desire or the

the beautiful and f a t. t who owns the ship is suddenly on the road into the fuller royal city of amana. on the side of the street, a huge replica benedicts of why an exposition leave to dot is tracking this ancient egyptian queen. and the best of a t t is one of the most famous works of oaks in the world. countries 3 of us will use to the new chapter, teaser post when i look at the bus different f a t t i think of how ancient she is . but she also seems very close to us. these, those shows that she's very pressing display. it's her age, mary, cut them on the we were in egypt. benedicts of one insisted on visiting

a mona alone denied in central egypt. and f a t t, as best was dug up here over a century ago, says well, wants to find out more about the artwork in its history. me someone to see if come up to me, you can double click next. which of these to have the museum and put that when dealing with museum history, but also as a normal visit to i, we should be aware of where the object so these are the only the bus of nessa t t and nothing i mean, but then well many other pieces discuss it around the world, is do it off of them, which i think it's important to be aware of where they actually originated from to see if that exist, sees something to do and where they are not located. now, did you, we list we, but we just the egypt around, 1900 wrath footage shows how rapidly incredibly valuable trashes

were ripped from the desert sands. european nations took everything they could find . and german archeologist looks like both shots made us say tional find on december 6, 1912 p. m. asked the head of a queen the she's been to the need and is united by all the the copies of the best invented and decorate egyptian red sides. but the original has never been shown in homeland

pictures because no money to discover we didn't know what to cost. the 1st one, the fittest, one in their lead museum in germany. unfortunately look inside. yep. beautiful. and even if it's finished, i can see here, here's the skin or shar lived on spanish, but how the minds between the lips, magnificent and unfinished of egypt also has the past. it's in the egyptian museum which attracts visitors from

all over the world with its version of an f, a t t. but guided tours here. oh is mentioned the even more impressive piece in but in the cairo best as nessa t t next the same for ness such as the detailed painting and the famous blue crown . but the autistic expressiveness of the head is unmistakable to anyone who stands before it. people identify with an f, a t t. the full mcqueen is timeless and modern. my little library seems to see very different too. i'm likely to be like a big salt for me because i never saw it in my real life so that something will be really make me so happy to see it. so hopefully it's worth the time to back to you just one day. so i can see,

i know we do like to watch sort of thing coming all over the world. so the kind of thing to the go as it gets into the gods, i would love to see the heads of people in egypt, at least for one second. let me see you and if you didn't mislead the i'm a cheap sion and so it's nice to see what this is what you not. so it's been that i could be one of the grandchildren and i said we're the very least to share the same homeland web. both the chips shouldn't be lovely enough, but i wish that. and if a teacher is bossed, will be brought to cairo, enjoying the rest of the pieces in egypt shall museum them. that is really my wish to send them to the museum island invalid prussian kings open, major museums here as part of the global competition. so the best collections piece is what brought from all over the world. and if

a t t is one of the biggest attractions, no visit to been in is complete with out to visit to museum islands own mona lisa. through the holes of the noise museum paused countless showcases featuring the highlights of pharaoh nik ops. the root finds the leads to queen nefertiti to a grand production adieva. on her own stage. the icon has her own pedestal and bell in. should she stay or should she go a century old debate? it's got the difficulty for somebody to can talk kind of fits 100 for them. take additional to give them. there has never been an official demand for return by the egyptian government, set them in the separately direction. ambassadors and germany have said never

a t. t is a wonderful advertisement for egyptian culture to help them. she is the best in baset or for egypt and egyptian culture imaginable. jacob, difficult to do with her, a very different perspectives here. and it's of course, important to us that you just the addiction embassy. good. see this museum not only wouldn't f, a t, t, but also with other examples of ancient egyptian culture as they are placed and that they also use it. the addiction embassy sometimes has perceptions here. i think. i think that's a very important collaboration in some countries because to them. yeah, the of got a decent. they all task is to preserve the pieces of world culture that the house to you. we must protect because of and maintain them as best we can and has the way i sees that means transport house, one of the question would be to teach. i'm punch punch. and

it was created 3300 years ago. this bus made of limestone and covered with a layer of plaster. some suspected was just a model for other versions made of stone. others think it was made for worship. the famous blue crown is painted with colored glass powder. there's a hand to dress. she is considered the most beautiful woman in the world. realistic and impressive symbol tenuously. material used for the artwork as west, less but ensure is valued. it's 400000000 euros just a few years ago. who does she belong to? a history is taught from a no tentative perspective at berlin's technical university. professor benedicts of why reconstruct the roots ok has taken. how did objects from africa, land,

and european museums? she calls for radical transparency with public collections. and she's changing how these venerable institutions have traditionally seen themselves. the security reason, football, no for me, but not to the what the museums don't do, never have done. it does not truly do. they don't show how the pieces go to the museum. they bruce, these huge seal comalla, they suckle 5, come up they, when you start to take an interest in how this addiction bus to that sarcophagus will have the freeze of the post. and on came to london from athens. tell the pieces came to the news read this originated in today's around and do wrong. then you realize that they were not dropped off at the museums by helicopter. so one fine day. but the global geo political power relations play a role in making yet mist walk home do possible without nothing. people seem easy

or sub. swipe left fast, do a, the z. you realize that the golden shimmering facade of the museums. is there any one side of the coin? he like to jump it to come. what if you flip this coin knows? however you see stories the violin slow lifting and humiliation you don't to prevents with disease to have disappeared? yes. for me, it's important to me that this the other side is also told a given the portion of the book as you see, the other shows the menu only got it. how do we use our museums? how do we put objects into the what do we teach children in these museum these on the music else can. how do we as a society, you lucas, how selves in these magnificent museums? he'll get them to see. i'll talk to see if they don't see music, christie, because this school has its prices on his plate to suit all the

so its options i may have for you. so you can see the house and events who can see him, the entrance of the house, and do usually as well as the same design of the house as if i'm on me. and in this room exactly what o'clock finds above 250. it would be here. yeah, it wouldn't be in this site to be closed book for kids. 40 years from 1910 to 1914, in a big grade to 100. we thought by to 100, meet them, discover some houses of all type of house. but the most, the most important discovery was 1912. hm. so most of the people on some other mobile, you know, and believe, museum the, here's the main location of the box, of the executive in this room. and usually we know that the best of the details here is

spot to this location. these was these, what was the house peasy? mazda 6 by all 976 house, 3472 room 19, even december 6th, 1912. and then it says he painted fast as a queen with smoothly cut weak flush pots, reddish yellow lips, red nostrils, strongly deep, and eyes. one missing is p. as nick muscle strongly indicated, 2 very like wrinkles leading up from the, in a corner of each line downward. that's the fluid, it's at a, it's at the 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. when the

fine was divvied up late to 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 falklands, the colors as if recently applied. okay, excellent. work well, no point describing it,

you'll have to see it. and i want to know if you are sad about the fact that the, or the phones of amman, now know, afraid to connect to and etc, and know in billing or so i'm sad about the, the, for the bus. but i hope that all the objects important object which is i put in is, am outside the egypt to attend the back to the land of egypt. which would be the total for, for his education. and from the community. for that he thought was of the i bought in the here and i'm out of 9, the east, the bank that it could be very close to the city. since i'm young, i'm look to the tories 10 them know presented these and i stuck to my work as i've

killed, as young doesn't speak to it and they love this work. so i try to give my beast and all my you 4 to 6 is this field? dance if there's a specialist, you know, and i think in the future it would be fine if or is it people do like this? i think it will over something good for the, for the antiquities and 80 percent effective really seem to be on the bed that actually being here doesn't help me learn more about town dot facebook shot to act on behalf of the gym and oriental society back then trust any book me what it does, give me a sense of how tasks were distributed around 1900. you see by soon, the dash, the great britain was responsible for infrastructure that go on both. then you have to put the management of antiquities. was traditionally in french hands in e also have these, these don't get the full say, how do you see from stephen considered egypt? it's door to its 1st born at that time the defeat value of the plant had done so

since napoleonic times several up. so now if you, it's a great privilege for me to be able to revive the knowledge of this period. if you, the more i play going, it simply believes that really happened in egypt back then benedicts have was travels to paris. the institute of phones is now home to historical documents of the french and take, which is authority. what will be archives tell her about the discovery of egyptian antiquities under the french flag fronts granted, the license to dig are 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 bed in her research began after the

events on to her rear square in 2011. some oklahoma just cannot seem to cut off hub on the sheets and them don't lose. yes, with democratic declaring what we now know is the arabs spring state that moment have, and susie has them for democracy with those demonstrations by young people in terry, a square that he was inspired to contribute to the democratic movements. asians easy, easy to have somewhat not easily in a moment of solidarity while her move on the moon cut 6, okay. these predict them on the 52, i wanted to share my knowledge of how the boss doesn't have a t t. who is so important to egypt as collective memory came to burnett and really speak to slot. you did, they did you forget the time when egypt was not independent? doesn't fit your needs. you click the button on the content this morning. egypt and phones have a lengthy history. the country on denials suddenly quote,

europe's attention during the podium subscription campaign in $1798.00 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 french influence can still be felt in cairo today. the stock exchange district was modeled on paris and the 19th century. formerly, however, egypt was under bruce's control, 110 years ago. it was not until 1922 that the country became an independent kingdom soon shifting. imagine sun, i'm probably just gonna have a do it up on me again and yeah, shortly before the outbreak of world war one,

egypt was divided vertically up. everything above ground belonged to england because egypt was a petition protector and sneezing o rhodes, the water supply the seas. they were all under british administration. 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 2 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, the french antiquities authority passed and you know,

all fines which would be divided up. exactly. one, how for egypt? the other for those who funded the excavation you'd think bushel 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 this you to say it was here today to divide dogs. this is fine when the full, the number to do execute just a division what she exact was obviously embarrassing to him. but he persevered amiably. so it was not to significantly damage scientific interests and the process to the associated with this put, find the belong to get the still have to be separated is not his fault. this is due

to the new regulation, know which, as i know, we both regret including lies, but that was the location culture heritage foundation in bending, now owns the signs that were awarded to james to moon the excavations finance. in 1913 the touchingly delicate statue of the queen and then 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 all shop cheat was nitro t. t, intentionally hidden partially visible on the german part of the site. the case of

photographic documentation from the time refutes this legend. what's the best smidge with clay to conceal its venue? maybe it was actually stolen or 9 i so with this because it's just your log of duty. how do you get them involved? almost no. the legal situation and all the regulations were at that time such that we cannot say it was stolen up as 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 a ton documents. 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 go up to the can the talk to some stuff to give you nefertiti is in the noise museum as a result of a historical mistake. and we cannot change history because it happened, but we can cortex this mistake. monica hannah's commitment to protecting the world's cultural heritage. has an international reputation for her research in addiction archives has made, had to believe that the little was broken when the signed was defined it up in 1913, i think, according even to the law that's was practiced in 1912. uh no, uh, mazda pieces would allow you to, and even if they did the front tire, so that was contested, either pet that i to reimburse the excavated the money. necessity that he paid for the dig in exchange of that object and bowed hot, being on the committee that was supposed to protect the heritage of egypt,

should have known this and he definitely knew this. and he probably starts to hide nefertiti in a way or 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 enough time if you discover and in fact, you kind of take it out to be sure. if you discover a statute of 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 going 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. it is your going to an 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 be finished to extract in this. it is actually acetate, an acceptable desmond. it's a from pathetic that people result to saying it would have been permitted and i'll 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 could do sure. 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 and this why they the to the peak and everything. and i'm also the belief of the, of the life base, the egypt. because that belief made them do leave to us this gates organization i think this is not according to have all the different objects and what's the museum stuff. but i think this is of course to have. what's the significance for uh, addiction past this. and as you said, the transparency of facts of historical yes documents. and i think the most

important because you'll have new transparency you have right now. right. exactly. which is almost yes. african people, i'm not the i think my presentation with memphis, if it goes to a very long time. i comes from the bottom of the 16 by product. and 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 everywhere the age since it's been living within the age of some of they deal with women go forth facility suited to as i know, my grandmother percent went once and swam in the lake of cost that comes to goes

pregnant so that is this idea that the samples are very much and i and did not this, this face of the museum of an archaeological side. and i think the west should open that eyes in, in looking at such a comes to, 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. a tug of war began between egypt, germany and france. benedicts of was found something interesting during her research and from the nav for gigi 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.

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 a french regret at that generosity in granting the bus to the germans. see that they didn't accept it, you know, of, 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

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. a charity tourist immediately began to take a mate, the swaps had that already been fees 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 that price could use. the small as well, most happened with the dates had been sent. but in 1933,

the very announcement from the hit, the intervenes to stop the project, which had been agreed during the weimar republic to the last key stoke seed. the mouse gave it the money for the press claims that he had fallen in love with queen f, a t t. the present democracy buskie to me. i moved and i haven't even hit 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

and then now presents the royals 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 journey the good. oh oh fun. human life you whole. so here from young a chip sions. this is yes because this isn't on check that we always want to my room for me. but on the other hand, you also see what she symbolizes here. as an ambassador, she has also become an object of identification here, and if you go to them,

that's extraordinary. she's an object of identification, full, yes. actually 2 coaches by queer drunkenness, this arguments that now for safety is an impossible, i think, makes me very, very angry because and invested in pains and diplomatic exchange. i have not seen a company that only sampling and bus with it and does not receive one. and so where is the crown of free? that is the gross income. it or we do not have the waiters, i'm eligible to do to, of kind of germany kind of with it isn't. so it's ridiculous that they say narrative. it's like you're not talking to 5 year on the, you know, it's a piece of information. and the and boy,

the missed this message is she was to me a symbol of a kind of grief in 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 to so that it's not just about in this a t t not then not. now it's more of a launch in our table, but it's what i think is it, the question of ownership needs to be clearly defined or to speak to the other that most will with and if a t t all the other objects. so then exhibits it or located system that's not the point to show, don't get us gun, it's of a bunch of you decides with a location. just think of that and i think that would have to be clarified. and in most cases that would clearly be the societies of origin. yeah. and or to nora, a boundary. use the 3 d scan to that is the actual image of an f, a t t. as part of an art project,

the, the digital nefertiti was put online in 2015. it attracted to lots of attention. and it was reported on worldwide. and it again raises the question of who owns nefertiti, the that you must, the subjects, the country 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 that the objects of borrowed all that they travel. and this is mostly the rest of it all, except in some individual cases, i finish off my was it. but at the end of the day, these objects must no longer belong to these powerful institutions. and the global most men do, and these institutions must no longer control the 7 of these otherwise not much

would have changed and 10 inches 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. and it created high expectations. the grand egyptian museum highlights the importance of the ferry on a policy for the country today. actually it was very

important for us to filter the word that we don't care about our to buttons and we show our money means in a great condition. and actually, i remember i made the debate, was of that act of the get t and the that it through v in the of the museum there. what to say that don't send off fact is countries that don't have good museums. this was the oxford is to the debate, and i said to them that we do have museums in egypt and now bits of the any museum in any place in europe or i read it to show that even with other countries that we need money for living but we preserve our money, which ones are just basic entity to me, this whole debate about museums as preserving institutions, of course, that you do want to be constantly criticized because 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 is that we really have to work together in an increasingly connected world, which 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 that much has been achieved. and he said, we just use the highest the museum as an institution is finally being put into question of to 200 years. new topics restitution. participation equalization have triggered rethink. the focus had traditionally been on the work of off, but it's like this relationships often remains hidden, voice news, and for the what we need is a completely new museum concept, namely museums that no longer showcase the grapes net sky and via the greatness of the business all patronage that makes it possible for these objects to be in the land in paris or in london, but instead, focus on the history of this exploitation,

did use the history of this relationship, this colonial relationships. you know, in other words, we need a complete re imagining of museums where the originals are no longer important. antonio speaks in the, nor a boundary is already way ahead. her number is t t belongs to everyone. the she traveled 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 millenniums, 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 on the think it was a benefit kind of counting, the mentor, always taking everything up and wanting to own it on

the clinic is still suppose do for tv. so the question arises whether the bus different, if a t t should be returned, don't know 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 demand should be taking these demands seriously would be a stop. the best one. when we talk about cultural heritage, there are no easy answers. those let those who need teach do so far, the owners of the pieces have mostly disregarded the mom's restitution peaceful underneath that slight. and when you ethical approach is needed to dom bundled

institutional just took, elizabeth the or the 1st place or this robot will be caring for the elderly but it has a lot to learn before it gets to that point. so this machine operates with
