Libnanews, Le Média Citoyen du Liban · Lina Ghotmeh, une architecte franco-libanaise choisie pour moderniser le British MuseumLe British Museum a choisi Lina Ghotmeh pour repenser ses galeries occidentales, dont celle des marbres du Parthénon, au centre d’une controverse entre la Grèce et le Royaume-Uni. Architecte franco-libanaise reconnue pour son approche alliant modernité et mémoire, elle a signé des projets emblématiques comme le Musée national d’Estonie et le Stone Garden Housing à Beyrouth. Son travail, qui vise à transformer le British Museum tout en respectant son héritage, pourrait influencer le débat sur la restitution des œuvres d’art.
The British Museum is one of my favorite places on earth, and I've visited it nearly every time I've been in London (last time was only about half a day, so I decided to accidentally visit Buckingham Palace instead). This is “the Younger Memnon”, a colossal statue of Ramses II.

NEW EPISODE!

Our AI hosts are "cracking open" the Cyrus Cylinder! 
This ancient Babylonian artifact isn't just a dusty relic – it's Cyrus the Great's personal PR campaign! 
Hear how he spun his conquest as divine will (thanks, Marduk! 
) and positioned himself as a liberator. We'll unpack the propaganda, the religious tolerance (a bit ahead of its time!), and why it's a symbol of human rights today... even if that wasn't the plan. 
There's even a copy at the UN! 
Tune in for a trip back to the Achaemenid Empire! #CyrusTheGreat #CyrusCylinder #AncientHistory #PersianEmpire #Archaeology #BritishMuseum #Podcast #HistoryPodcast #Mesopotamia #Babylon #HumanRights #Propaganda #AncientText #AI #DigitalHumanities

Well they didn't have plastic then Adrian, sorry the Past isn't exciting enough for you and your tiny imagination.
Some of us see a clay tablet from thousands of years ago, making a complaint about shoddy copper and feel so alive and part of Humanity.
You however, as the husband of one of the Guardian editors or something (I heard) whine that ancient pots aren't 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' enough for you....
