The statue of King Ramses II in the Egyptian Museum, and who discovered it.
Italian Egyptologist Giovanni Battista Caviglia discovered the statue of King Ramses II at the Great Temple in Giza; it is one of the tallest statues in Egypt. The statue is carved out of pink granite, measures 11.30 m, and weighs 83.4 tonnes. In 1955, the statue, which was discovered in 1820, broke into six pieces at Mit Rahina near ancient Memphis. After a few years, the Egyptian government decided to relocate the statue. The statue was moved from a dead hostage in Giza to the Iron Bab Square in Cairo. Let the name of the square be changed to Ramses Square. After this, the statue was moved to the grounds of the famous Egyptian Museum to be more protected among the most prominent artifacts on display at the museum.
