Egyptian treasures slowly being found


I was so dismayed to see precious artifacts housed in the Cairo Museum's stolen and damaged during the Egyptian Revolution. I was there only two weeks prior --- and as a individual who's not big on museum --- I admit,was absolutely fascinated. Each ancient artifact had an amazing story behind it.

So it was great to hear that these priceless pieces are slowly being recovered. So far 23 of the 54 objects missing have been found.
