"Minister of Culture, Farouk Hosni agreed to assign a delegation from the ministry under Ibrahim Abdul Meguid to restore three pieces of antiquities. The pieces are the portraits of the faces of three ancient Egyptians, said Zahi Hawas, Head of the Supreme Council for Antiquities, asserting that this wooden portrait was to be placed on the tombs. The pieces were given to Egyptian embassy in Athens by a Greek national."
