For more than a century, museums have framed ancient Egypt as an object of fascination—something to collect, display, and consume—often disconnected from its current people and cultures. In this talk, Egyptologist Heba Abd el Gawad examines how the land’s heritage and identity have been shaped into a museum commodity and how this approach is finally being challenged. She explores how museums can move beyond appropriation toward more responsible, meaningful, and inclusive ways of representing Egypt and its people, past and present.
