    If movies have taught us anything, the best outcome is Night at the Museum. I think we need to preemptively nuke the place so zombies or some horrifying plague doesn't kill us all :lol:

    Well, either that or secure the statue properly so the traffic on Oxford Road doesn't bounce it around and make the superstitious think it's possessed. :roll:

    This being England, I wonder how long till there's a Muslim protest complaining that this graven image insults the Prophet. :D

    What really sucks is that what you said here is not just possible but probable.

    Why can't I find information (besides this story) on Neb-senu?

    As best I can determine Nebsen was a scribe in the third dynasty. This much is certain.

    There's a few references to paired statues of Nebsen and Nebet-ta as a married couple but that's not possible as Nebetah was a daughter of Amenhotep 3rd in the 18th dynasty. More likely is that the statues referenced are of Nebsen and a woman who is (of Nebsen) and the name (of Nebsen) was mistranslated.

    In any case, a scribe would not have been married to a princess.

    Meanwhile, the true cause of the phenomena has been discovered. The museum display is right next to this guys bedroom.
