Egypt recuperates weighty 'Green Stone casket's from the US
Destination Egypt
Egyptian specialists reported the recuperation of a weighty stone coffin cover from the US on Monday at a function in Cairo.
The stone casket, which at 500 kilograms (around 1,100 pounds) is quite possibly of the greatest, date back to the Late Time of Old Egypt (747-332 BC), said Mostafa Waziri, the secretary-general of the Incomparable Gathering of Ancient pieces at Egypt's Service of The travel industry and Artifacts.
Ahmed Issa, Egypt's clergyman of the travel industry and relics, said the cover "was plundered and snuck from Egypt to the US a couple of years prior."
The recuperation came because of the joint effort with US specialists and an examination traversing north of two years, Issa added.
"The stone casket is exceptionally thick, which pushed thieves to take the stone coffin's cover without the base," Waziri added during the news meeting, it is known as the "Green Stone casket" due to the green face on top of it to say it.
"Our genuine thanks to USA experts for their collaboration in returning this valuable piece," the Egyptian Service of International concerns tweeted on Monday.
Throughout the course of recent years, Egypt has recuperated around 29,300 old pieces snuck out of the nation, as indicated by Egypt's Unfamiliar Clergyman Sameh Shoukry, who went to the function.
More than 110 of those were recuperated in 2022 from the US, New Zealand, France and different nations, as per the pastor of the travel industry and artifacts.

Aristotle: The Mind That Shaped Human Knowledge
Aristotle was born in 384 BCE in the small Greek town of Stagira, in northern Macedonia. His life unfolded during a time of political change, intellectual awakening, and cultural expansion across the Greek world. Though more than two thousand years have passed since his death, Aristotle’s ideas continue to influence philosophy, science, politics, ethics, education, and even everyday thinking. His story is not a legend built on myths, but the true journey of a curious mind that sought to understand everything—from the smallest living creature to the highest purpose of human life. Aristotle’s father, Nicomachus, was a physician to King Amyntas III of Macedon. Because of this, Aristotle grew up in an environment where observation, biology, and the study of nature were part of daily life. From an early age, he was exposed to the idea that the natural world could be studied systematically, not just explained through myths or religious stories. This early influence played a major role in shaping his later approach to knowledge. At around the age of seventeen, Aristotle traveled to Athens, the intellectual center of the Greek world, to study at Plato’s Academy. Plato was already famous as the student of Socrates and one of the greatest philosophers of his time. Aristotle remained at the Academy for nearly twenty years. Although he deeply respected Plato, he did not agree with all of his ideas. Plato believed that true reality existed in a world of perfect, unchanging “Forms,” while the physical world was only an imperfect reflection. Aristotle, however, believed that knowledge begins with observing the physical world itself. This difference would later define Aristotle’s unique philosophy. Despite their disagreements, Aristotle and Plato shared a strong teacher-student bond. Aristotle learned logic, ethics, metaphysics, and political theory at the Academy. Over time, however, his independent thinking became more noticeable. After Plato’s death in 347 BCE, Aristotle left Athens. Some historians believe this was partly because the Academy was now led by Plato’s nephew and partly because anti-Macedonian feelings were growing in Athens, which made life difficult for someone connected to Macedonia. Aristotle then spent several years traveling and studying. He lived in Asia Minor and later on the island of Lesbos, where he conducted detailed research on marine life. During this period, he carefully observed animals, plants, and natural processes. Unlike many thinkers before him, Aristotle did not rely only on abstract reasoning. He dissected animals, recorded their structures, and classified them based on shared characteristics. This work laid the foundation for biology and zoology as scientific disciplines. In 343 BCE, Aristotle’s life took a dramatic turn when he was invited by King Philip II of Macedon to tutor his young son, Alexander. This boy would later become Alexander the Great. Aristotle taught Alexander philosophy, ethics, politics, literature, and science. He introduced him to the works of Homer and emphasized the importance of reason and self-control. While Alexander would go on to become a military conqueror, Aristotle hoped his student would also rule with wisdom and justice. Though historians debate how much influence Aristotle truly had on Alexander’s actions, there is no doubt that their relationship connected philosophy with world-changing power. After Alexander became king, Aristotle returned to Athens around 335 BCE and founded his own school, the Lyceum. Unlike Plato’s Academy, the Lyceum focused heavily on empirical research and systematic study. Aristotle and his students walked while discussing ideas, which is why his followers were called the “Peripatetics,” meaning “those who walk about.” At the Lyceum, Aristotle organized research across many fields, creating one of the earliest models of a research institution. Aristotle wrote extensively, though most of his popular writings have been lost. What remains are mainly lecture notes and technical works. These texts cover an astonishing range of subjects: logic, physics, metaphysics, ethics, politics, rhetoric, poetry, biology, astronomy, and psychology. In logic, Aristotle developed the system of syllogisms, a method of reasoning that dominated logical thought for centuries. In ethics, his work Nicomachean Ethics explored the idea of virtue as a balance between extremes and argued that the goal of human life is eudaimonia, often translated as “flourishing” or “well-being.” In politics, Aristotle studied different forms of government, analyzing monarchies, aristocracies, and democracies. He believed that the best political system depended on the character and needs of the people, not on a single perfect model. He famously described humans as “political animals,” meaning that living in a community is essential to human nature. Despite his achievements, Aristotle’s later years were marked by difficulty. After Alexander the Great died in 323 BCE, anti-Macedonian sentiment rose sharply in Athens. Aristotle was accused of impiety, a charge similar to the one that had led to Socrates’ execution. Refusing to face trial, Aristotle left Athens, saying he would not allow the city to “sin twice against philosophy.” He retreated to Chalcis, where he died in 322 BCE at the age of sixty-two. Aristotle’s death did not end his influence. In fact, his ideas grew stronger over time. His works were preserved by scholars in the Islamic world during the Middle Ages and later reintroduced to Europe. Thinkers such as Avicenna, Averroes, and Thomas Aquinas studied and expanded upon Aristotle’s philosophy. For centuries, Aristotle was known simply as “The Philosopher,” a title that reflected his unmatched authority in many fields. The true story of Aristotle is not just about a man who lived long ago. It is the story of a thinker who believed that the world could be understood through careful observation, logical reasoning, and thoughtful reflection. He taught humanity to ask not only what things are, but why they are. In doing so, Aristotle shaped the foundations of Western thought and left a legacy that continues to guide minds across the world.
