The search is on for a missing 3k-year-old gold bracelet that disappeared from the Egyptian Museum — and the international press is all ears. A gold bracelet linked to Pharaoh Amenemope decorated with lapis lazuli beads disappeared from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir’s restoration lab during preparations for an exhibition in Rome, the Tourism Ministry announced earlier this week. Photographs of the bracelet have been sent to airports, seasports, and border crossings to prevent smuggling of the bracelet. (Bloomberg | CNN | The Times | BBC)
