Perry Kyles, PhD discusses the ongoing debate surrounding the return of the Rosetta Stone to Egypt, emphasizing the importance of preservation and stewardship of cultural artifacts.
He explores the historical context of Kemet’s heritage, highlighting the destruction and alteration of monuments over time. Kyles argues that the true home of a monument is where it is cherished and protected, rather than where it was historically located. He concludes that the Rosetta Stone is currently safest in the British Museum, advocating for a commitment to preservation as the key to restoring true heritage.
