LONDON - A brown quartzite head of young king Tutankhamen sold at auction in London for more than 4.7 million pounds on Thursday, in the face of Egyptian demands for its return.
Outside, around 20 protesters stood silently and held placards that said “Egyptian history is not for sale”. The 28.5 centimetres high piece, with damage only to the ears and nose, was sold from the private Resandro collection of Egyptian art.
