Ancient Egyptian Nobel Women & The Power Of Questions

The MUMMY mask in AL Ahram Weekly last Thursday was different... in the printed versions the questions were shattering...
(you would not find these Questions in the e-version of the Weekly paper):

Was it Stolen? When? Who? Why? $$$ offcourse.
How was it smuggled out of Egypt? who knew what? How it did Happen?
What is it's Future? The Mask? the $$$? the Mummy??? These are the war questions between Museums, Authorties, and Theeves...

I would have liked to know more about this Nobel Ancient Women. How did she manage the poltics of her time ? Men? Lovers? Faith? Powers? What was her complection like? Fair? or Dark? Was she really from the court of Ramses II? Was that the same pharoh of Moses? How & what did she gosip about? How Young or how old when she passedout?
No content just Masks...?

The same questions are applicable to lots and lots of Ancient Antiquities outside Egypt. When I went to the louvre in France, I was shocked to find a whole department for Egyptian Antiquities!!!!

BTW, I have noticed that you have completed a whole year of blogging 2 days ago.
You started blogging on 12 March 2005. Hope you have enjoyed your experience:)
