The Egypt Independent is reporting that an attempted theft has been foiled at Silsileh quarry near Kom Ombo. Very pleasingly the guards who prevented the theft have been rewarded, definitely a welcome development.
Allegedly those arrested were trying to steal a bas-relief panel of King Merenptah presenting Mayet. The panel suffered some scratches and holes but remains in situ.
