Egypt Recovering Artifact from Switzerland
A golden mummy mask from the Ptolemaic era has been recovered from Switzerland and returned to Egypt after being seized by Swiss authorities in 2022. The mask is considered one of the important archaeological artifacts that reflect the religious and spiritual beliefs of ancient Egypt, as it was used to embody the divine status of the deceased and ensure their immortality in the afterlife. Its authenticity has been confirmed by Egyptology experts, and it dates back to the second century BC. This restitution operation is part of the cooperation between Egypt and Switzerland to protect cultural heritage and combat illicit trafficking, as Egypt has recovered around 80 artifacts since the signing of the bilateral agreement in 2011.
