A Dutch Museum exhibition titled "Kemet" that showcases the influence of ancient Egypt on black musicians, including artists like Beyoncé and Rihanna, has angered Egypt. The Egyptian authorities have accused the museum of "falsifying history" and banned the museum's archaeologists from a dig at a key site. The exhibition features album covers, photographs, and contemporary artworks that highlight the connection between ancient Egypt and black culture. The controversy highlights the ongoing debate and tension between Egypt and the West over the interpretation and ownership of Egyptian history and heritage.
