A stunning discovery at the Red Sea port of Berenike in #Egypt: a #Buddha statue was found in the forecourt of the Isis temple (early Roman period), attesting to the intercultural connections along sea trade routes between India & Roman Egypt.

Gil Stein expresses hope for preserving Afghanistan’s cultural heritage, amidst threats from ongoing development, looting of archaeological sites, and museum collections in storage. #CulturalHeritage #Preservation rferl.org/a/afghanistan-tali….
Major challenges for a Midwest university art museum facing deaccessioning of important artworks. I hope this proposal, which goes against numerous ethics standards and codes, will be reversed. #museums #deaccessioning #artmuseum
Valparaiso University, whose enrollment has dropped 39 percent, wants to update two dorms to improve students’ first-year experience. But its plan to fund the renovations by selling $10 million of artwork from the campus museum has divided the school. nyti.ms/3yuVJLI

I am sorry to hear of Oscar White Muscarella's death on November 27 at the age of 91. His The Lie Became Great: The Forgery of Ancient Near Eastern Cultures (2000), was quite inspirational. I will never look at Luristan Bronzes without questioning their authenticity.

I have been watching this and my conclusion is that Graham Hancock has made a lot of money by deluding people with his way out ideas. There’s no conspiracy from academics, who just need to do a better job sharing the wonders of prehistory with the public.
