L'égyptologie, née à l'époque coloniale, a créé 'des inégalités structurelles' qui 'résonnent aujourd'hui' encore, souligne la Britannique Christina Riggs, égyptologue à l'université de Durham. (...) Sur le fameux cliché, 'l'Egyptien, pas nommé, pourrait être Hussein Abou Awad ou Hussein hmed Saïd', explique Mme Riggs.
