Watch Dr Zahi Hawass' Hidden Treasure of the Cairo Museum's Basement in New Channel | Channify

( http://heritage-key.com/blogs/ann/treasures-hidden-cairo-museums-basement ) Dr Zahi Hawass takes us down into the basement of the Egyptian Museum, Cairo. He explains that when he was younger, he was part of a team which made a discovery in Kom Abu Bellou, and it was upon finding a statue of Aphrodite where Dr Hawass realised his love for Archaeology. But on returning the artefacts to the Cairo Museum, they were simply stored in the basement and forgotten by previous directors. Dr Hawass explains that this is why he is working to open up the basement of Cairo Museum and share its treasures that have been stored away for a long time.
