“Egyptians preceded other civilizations to celebrating public holidays and organizing massive convoys; they were an inspiration for the Greeks.” These are the words Greek Historian Herodotus used to describe the character of the ancient Egyptian and his early passion for celebrations and festivities.
This May, the Egyptian museums are feting the ‘celebrational Egyptian character’ by displaying a collection of memorabilia and antiquities documenting Egyptian festivities throughout different historical eras.
