This Man Was Spotted Holding A Sign At The British Museum Urging Them To Return The Rosetta Stone!

  • The British Museum is considered the biggest museum of stolen artifacts, having looted valuable pieces from Egypt, Greece, and multiple other great civilizations.

  • Despite Egypt’s numerous efforts, the British Museum still refused to return Egyptian artifacts to its rightful owners.

    However, while some resort to launching petitions and taking a somewhat legal protocol, others have resorted to other methods morally compelling the British Museum and the British government to repatriate these looted artifacts, like this man.

  • John Navarre is an American entrepreneur, and Egypt enthusiast who was spotted conducting the first protest of its kind at the British Museum, urging them to return stolen artifacts, including the Rosetta Stone!

  • According to Navarre, his mission is “To morally compel the British Museum and the British Government to unconditionally return the world’s most famous looted artifact to its original and rightful owners, the government and people of Egypt.”
