10:18 am
we were in egypt. benedicts of want insisted on visiting a mona alone, denied in central egypt. nefertiti 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 can see it come up to me even double click next. which of these 12, the museum may put that when dealing with museum history, but also is a normal visit to i, we should be aware of where the object. so these are the only the bus to submit for t t end up nothing. i mean, but then, well, many other pieces the scott to do around the world is do not have them on 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 in egypt, around 1900 raf footage,
10:19 am
it shows how rapidly incredibly valuable trashes were ripped from the desert sands . european nations took everything they could find and german archaeologist ludovico shot, made us say, tional. find on december 6th, 1912. tea on us, the head of a queen. she's been to the lid and is united by all the the copies of the best invented and decorate egyptian red sides. but the original has
10:20 am
never been shown in her homeland. which is because no money is cather close to the wife, we didn't know what to cost. the 1st one, the fittest, one in their lead museum in germany. unfortunately, you can find that you've seen via beautiful funds encryption, you even if it's on himself, the skin shar, live, here's unfinished, but how the minds between the lips magnificent in detail and unfinished egypt also has the past. it's in the addiction museum,
10:21 am
which attracts visitors from all over the world with its version of an f, a t t. but guided tools here always mentioned the even more impressive piece in but in the cairo best isn't f a 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 life dream to see the age of new to i'm likely to be like a big sell for me because i never saw it in my real life. so that's something will be really make me so happy to see you. so hopefully it will return to back to you just one day. so i can see,
10:22 am
i know we do like towards sort of thing coming all over the world. so the whole goal is to the collection of things that you've sent through a guy that would love to see the head of the tv in egypt, at least for one second. i'm gonna see you and if you didn't mislead for the i'm a cheap sion and so it's nice to teach you what this is, what you not. so it's been that i could be one of her grandchildren. and i said we the very least to share the same homeland with both. the gibb shouldn't be lovely enough, but i wish that net petite 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
10:23 am
is what brought from all over the world and f a t t is one of the biggest attractions, no visit to been in is complete without a visit to museum islands own mona lisa. through the holes of the noise museum paused countless showcases featuring the highlights of fairy own it costs the route, finds the leads to queen nefertiti, a grand production adieva on her own stage. the icon has her own pedestal and bell in. should she stay? or should she go for a century old debate it's got the difficulties for somebody to can talk kind of fits 100 for the deck. additionally give them there has never been an official demand for returned by the egyptian government,
10:24 am
sort of in the separately direction. ambassadors and germany have said never a t. t is a wonderful advertisement for egyptian culture help him. she is the best ambassador for egypt and egyptian culture imaginable. jacob, difficult to deal with her a very different perspectives. and it's of course, important to us that you just want the addiction embassy. good. see this museum, which not only with never a t team here, but also with other examples of ancient egyptian culture as they are placed. and that they also use it see addiction embassy sometimes has receptions here. and i think that's a very important collaboration. some countries because i'm picking. yeah, the of covered, these are, these all task is to preserve the pieces of world culture that a house to you. we must protect and preserve and maintain them as best we can. and how is the way i see is that managed funds for how some of the question would be to teach? i'm pumped i'm,
10:25 am
it was created 3300 years ago. this bus made of limestone and covered with a layer of plaster. some suspected was just the 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 hint to dress. she is considered the most beautiful women in the world. realistic and impressive symbol tenuously material used to the artwork is worthless, 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 walk reconstructs the roots arches taken. how did objects from africa, land,
10:26 am
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 of using the football. no, for me, but not. you know what the museums don't do, never have done those naturally. do they don't show how the pieces go to the museum . they bruce, these huge seal comalla to suckle 5. come up. they. when you start to take an interest in how this addiction bus to that, so call for guess or how the freeze of the posting 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 would not dropped off at the museums by helicopter. so one fine day that the global geo political power relations play a role, they make it and yet,
10:27 am
and just was yeah. how do you perceive without asking people seem easy steps? what? 3 to 5, do have the easy, you realize that the golden, shimmering facade of the museums. is there any one side of the coins you'd like to jump it to come home? if you flip this coin over however, you see stories, the violence, slow lifting and humiliation you don't to prevents with diseased well disposed. yes, true. it's important to me that this the other side is also told a given the portion t look 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 seem easy. christy, because this school has its price as well as play to suit all the
10:28 am
so its options i may have for you so you can see the house and i meant to come see him. the entrance of the house and do usually as well as the same design of the house as if i'm out and me and in this room exec 3 little hot finds a positive and 50 p, it would be here. yeah, i wouldn't be in this site to be close book crowd for kids 40 years from 1910. the 1914 and the big good to 100. we thought by to 100 meet them is coming. some houses of all type of house. but the most, the most important discovery was 1912. so most of the people, some of them over, you know, and believe, museum the, here's the main location of the bulk of the executive in this role. and usually we know that the boss of the details here is spot to this
10:29 am
location he's. he's one of the most peasy logistics by all 976 house, 3472 room 19, even december 6th, 1912. and then it says he painted fost as a queen with smoothly cot, weak flesh pots, reddish yellow lips, red nostrils, strongly deepened, eyes one missing is p as nick muscle. strongly indication 2 very like wrinkles leading up from the, in a corner of each line 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.
10:30 am
when the fine was divvied up late to the, the site was the scope to swap shop and how many valuable fines for the archeologists. 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. excellent work. well,
10:31 am
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 for it to connect to and etc on that 1000000000 or so i'm sad about the, the for the, the bus. but i hope that all the objects important object, which is i put in museum outside the egypt, attended back to the motherland egypt. which would be the total for, for the addiction and from the community for the thoughts of the i put in the here and i'm out of 9, the least to bank that it could be very close to the city. since i'm young, i'm look to the tories, 10 them know present ticket is and they start to my work as i've killers and
10:32 am
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 on surfaces? chevy, you know, and i think in the future it would be fine if or is it people do like this? i think it was over something good for the, for the antiquities and 80 percent. said to really seem to be on the bed. the g being here doesn't help me learn more about town to face boy shot to act on behalf of the gym and oriental society back then trust that he book me. what it does, give me a sense of how tasks were distributed around 1900. you see above us through the dash, the great britain was responsible for infrastructure that go on board, then you have to put the management of antiquities. was traditionally in french hands in e also have these, these don't to be full say, how do you see from stephen considered egypt its door to its 1st born that that
10:33 am
time would defeat 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 if this period, if you, the more i play going example believes that really happened in egypt back then benedict's of was travels to paris. the institute of phones is now home to the historical documents of the french and to put these 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 what 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
10:34 am
events on to her real square in 2011 system. oklahoma just cannot clean the cut off hub on the sheet symbol. don't lose yes with democratic declaring what we now know is the red springs 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 as you'd see on egypt, sab, somewhat not easily in a moment, to slay dara while her move on the moon. cut 6. 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 fit your needs. you click the button on the content this morning. egypt and phones have
10:35 am
a lengthy history. the country on the nile 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 in 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 fuel shifting. imagine someone probably just gonna have
10:36 am
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 belongs to england because egypt was a british protector and sneezing all roads. the water supply the seas, they were all under british administration. and everything below the ground was french. it because egypt and take what jesus ortiz 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 isab 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,
10:37 am
the french antiquities authority passed and you know, all fines which would be divided up exactly. one hall for egypt, the other for those who funded the excavations 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 you the fast, the was here today to develop adults. this 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 to get the still have to be separated is not his fault. this is due
10:38 am
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 fines that were awarded to james team on the excavations finance. in 1913 the touchingly delicate statue of the queen and then wrote many of the pieces working models, unfinished specimens from the sculptors workshop. but nothing comes close to the impact of the color. so queen legends have even imagine about and if a teacher is exodus or shot sheet was nitro t t, intentionally hidden partially visible on the german parts of the site. the case of
10:39 am
photographic documentation from the time refutes this legend. what's the best smidge with clay to conceal its venue? maybe it was actually stolen. 9 i so with this because it's your log of duty, he could have been bogged 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 in a dark corner where no lights fell. and get losing the message 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 with 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 going
10:40 am
to because i don't think that's the right way to look up 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 happened, but we can cortex this mistake. monica has commitment to protecting the world's cultural heritage. has an international reputation put her research in addiction, archives has led to believe that the law 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 1st car, so that was contested. egypt had that i to reimburse the excavator the money necessity that he paid for the big exchange of this object and bought hard being on
10:41 am
the committee that was supposed to protect the heritage of egypt. should have known this and he definitely knew this. and he probably started to hide nefertiti 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 introduce national leaders and celebrities to egypt. high culture, a fights for the return of cultural heritage from abroad. he to down again to to have the division of the fines. * how can fully not make decisions about the image of egypt, the low was a low in that time, if you discover and in that group, you're going to take it out to be sure. if you discover a statute of
10:42 am
a king or queen made of limestone, you're going to take it out to you. so that was the whole. 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 germany, one voice and this post colonial debate 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 to me? i can be dismissed to execute this. it is actually advocate and acceptable desmond . it's a from pathetic that people result to saying it would have been permitted and i'll give it was the right that the strongest argument of this volunteer between one. and they will all coupons before dividing up the fines meant that european rulers in egypt gave themselves the right to take it gyptian antiquities out of the
10:43 am
country. i do too 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 after life based egypt. that belief made them do leave to us this gates organization. i think this is not according to have or the exception of texting was the museum stuff. but i think this is of close to have what's the significance for addiction past this? and as you said, the transparency of facts of historical yes documents. and i think the most
10:44 am
important because if you have new these transparency you have right now. right. exactly. but yes, african people have not the i think my presentation with metro pc goes to i comes from the other comes so i go up with the image of the city, all the mistakes that you can see the images everywhere. so you can see that i've clicked as everywhere the age since it's been living within the age of some they deal with women go for facility, which was i know my grandmother percent went once and swam in the lake of cost that
10:45 am
comes to goes pregnant. so that is this idea that these samples are very much and i am 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 culture 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 gemini, and france. benedicts of war 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.
10:46 am
she used old newspaper articles, alleges to recount the 1st time egypt oscar for the bus back a century ago. the objection 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 objective desire, and a french regret at that generosity in grunting the bus to the germans. see that they've been accepted, 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 site 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 the
10:47 am
addiction, cultural heritage, cortex only. but some one did you see 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 the spots the time that already been fee is several years earlier. that nefertiti might just be a temporary visitor. in bed, in an artist had begun work on a copy in 1926. it was to be better than the original technicians have pressed, could use the small people most happened. the dates had been sent, but in 1933,
10:48 am
the very announcement hit the intervenes to stop the project, which had been agreed during the weimar republic to each this. keep stop. see the mouse getting the money. so the press claims that he had fallen in love with queen f, a t t that present democracy, buskie to me, i would not have anything 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
10:49 am
violin 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 johnny the good. oh oh fun. human lloyd 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,
10:50 am
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 cultures by quarter ongoing this, this arguments that not for security is an unbox center. i think makes me very, very angry because an investor that entails the rustic exchange. i have not seen a company that's only samson and best with it and does not receive one. and so where is the crown of free? but if they have gross income, or we do not have the waiters, i'm eligible to do that, 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,
10:51 am
you know, it's a piece of information. and some boy, this is miss dundas patricia was to me a symbol of a kind of grief and politics of representation that the global hope is appropriate in recent years. and it was an attempt to work with an icon that has great power to tell a different story, each does what to it's not just about and if a 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 to the other that most will with and if a t t all the other objects so then exhibited or located system that's not the point to show. don't get his gun as of a bunch of 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,
10:52 am
as part of an art project, 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 that the objects of borrowed all that they travel and this is mostly the rest of it 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.
10:53 am
and otherwise, not 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. so the country today actually to is very important for
10:54 am
us to filter the word that we don't care about our to buttons. and we show our money minutes in a great condition. and actually i remember i made the debates with the to the get t and the back through v in the arctic museum. there. what to say that don't send off taxes, cuts it is. they don't have good museums. this was the oxford, as to the debates. 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 i read it to show that even we other countries that we need money for living. but we deserve our money. which ones are just the sensitive to me? this whole debate about museums as preserving institutions. of course, the 2 wants to be constantly criticized 2 days ago. it wasn't an easy phase for the whole of society hasn't changed in the last 5 to 10 years from the great
10:55 am
opportunity that museums and cultural institutions have today 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 not 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, dakota nice. ation. have triggered rethink. the focus that traditionally been on the work of off, but it's like this relationships often remain hidden busing operations. and 1st of all we need is a completely new museum concept. namely museums that no longer showcase the grades nets and via the greatness of the business. all patronage that makes it possible for these objects to be in berlin, in paris or in london, but instead focused on the history of this exploitation,
10:56 am
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. antonia about, please never speak soon. 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 artist also buried the best and the sand. let's ends. it's ultimately it's plastic and 3 d. it will be there for millennials, which means that this box can be found in 10 years, some way they are in this hot or in 3000 years. it might still be that was the benefit of kind of counting the mental was taking everything up and wanting to own
10:57 am
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 or not, my own so would be we must take the rest to, to sion request serious lincoln. and we must learn to listen boots one to 200. these are not political demands, we have to see them as a cultural need, a cultural demand. so the taking these to mom 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 follow 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 institution to
