Yeah I’m totally sure the Brits didn’t break a single thing shipping artifacts to their big fancy museum. Let’s ignore all the mummies Europeans ground up into powder and ingested as “medicine”. Savagely eating dead humans with the same mouths that say brown people are too savage to take care of their own artifacts.
To be fair, they probably weren’t able to take care of their own artifacts very well … after having been invaded by the British.
Oddly enough they didn’t teach that part of history when I was at school. Got anything I could learn up on it
They also turned them into oil paint. Mummy/egyptian brown was a thing.

I dont know why people do shit like this. Find some rare, finite resource of information and do just about everything with them except study them respectfully. Eat them, grind them into paint, rich people having “unwrapping parties.”
Humans are so deeply disappointing.
