Media: - Nya fynd berättar sanningen
Aftonbladet 2010-01-11
LONDON. Slavar byggde inte pyramiderna. Nya gravfynd visar att byggarna var väl ansedda. De åt gott. Varje dag fick arbetarna som byggde Egyptens pyramider 21 kor och 23 får att äta. Det visar nya gravfynd.
– De åt kött varje dag och jobbade i skift, säger högsta chefen för utgrävningar i Egypten.
De nya gravfynden sprider ett lite annat ljus över pyramidernas byggnadsarbetare än man tidigare antagit. Arkeologiska fynd tyder på att den 10 000 man starka arbetsstyrkan åt kött varje dag, 21 kor och 23 får, som skickats från jordbruk i norra och södra Egypten, skriver Mail on Sunday.
Begravdes vid kungen
De ska ha arbetat i tremånadersskift och var så väl ansedda att de byggare som dog under konstruktionen fick äran att begravas i tegelgravar i skuggan av pyramiderna.
– De här gravvalven byggdes intill kungens pyramid. Om de hade varit slavar hade deras egna gravar knappast byggts intill kungens, säger Zahi Hawass, högsta chef för samtliga utgrävningar i Egyptens, som avslöjade gravarna i går.[...]

Zahi Hawass Reveals a Glimpse
of the Latest Discoveries in Egypt 2009
Egypt says Jewish slaves
didn't build pyramids
By Katarina Kratovac, Associated Press / January 11, 2010Egyptian archeologists presented new evidence Monday that the people who worked on the Great Pyramids of Giza were not Jewish slaves, but paid laborers. Newly discovered tombs show construction workers were honored by being buried near the pyramids.Egypt displayed on Monday newly discovered tombs more than 4,000 years old and said they belonged to people who worked on the Great Pyramids of Giza, presenting the discovery as more evidence that slaves did not build the ancient monuments.
Egypt’s archaeology chief Zahi Hawass said that discovery and the latest finds last week show that the workers were paid laborers, rather than the slaves of popular imagination.
- Such tombs would not have been built for slaves.

om Zahi Hawass och Egyptisk arkeologi...
Inom arkeologi-världen är vår käre dr Zahi Hawass allmänt erkänd som en dryg mediahora.
Han, och enkom han, bestämmer vad och när som grävs ut i Egypten, och har så gjort i 2 decennier, och är även rätt så nationalistisk och känd för att försköna sitt egna lands historia, ungefär som samtliga arkeologer gjorde i början av 1900-talet.
Alltså är dr Zahi ungefär 100 år efter sin tid. Personligen tror jag inte på mycket han säger, och råder samtliga till att vara källkritiska vad gäller hans utsagor....
Zahi Hawass försvarar Mubarak dagarna före avgången
Zahi Hawass, National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, gives a passionate defense of Hosni Mubarak, who, at the time, was days away from stepping down as the President of Egypt. (6 February 2011) :)
UM-bloggen blev naturligtvis väldigt nyfiken och beslutade sig för att kolla lite på källan som tydligen ligger bakom medias nya historielektioner angående Egyptens judiska slavar & pyramider...
Huffington Post har som tur är gjort en grävande artikel om Zahi Hawass, så bedöm själva... (Text på engelska)
Zahi Hawass
- Egyptens Indiana Jones
www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/16“He created by his publicity campaigns a new image of Egypt that mobilized millions of visitors,” says Dieter Arnold, head of the Metropolitan Museum’s Egypt Department in New York.
“He cleaned up the sites, built tourist facilities and museums, organized exhibitions abroad and brought Egyptian antiquities into the center of worldwide attention.”
In essence, Hawass was putting bread on the table.
Of course, that also involved painting a picture of Egypt that was tourist-friendly and glossed over some of the country’s brutal realities.
Hawass’ Egypt was the pyramids and the pharoahs, not social, political and economic inequities on the streets of Cairo. Recruiting Western enthusiasts like assistants on his great dig, Hawass steered some of those same Westerners away from a deeper understanding of the tectonic shifts in Egyptian society that ultimately surfaced in Tahrir.
He also was never focused only on branding Egypt — he was busy branding himself as well. He mandated that the King Tut exhibition sell copies of his fedora and planned to launch an eponymous clothing line marketing shirts that his catalogue claimed, “Recall the rugged experience of excavating the ancient tombs in Egypt.”
Mubarak’s wife strongly supported Hawass, and he took the opportunity for financial gain.
Hawass received $200,000 a year for serving as an Explorer-In-Residence for The National Geographic Society, which also helped arrange speaking engagements that earned him $15,000 apiece. In addition, he made an undisclosed sum from the sale of his books (each copy of “Secret Voyage: Love, Magic and Mysteries in the Realm of the Pharoah’s” sold for $4,400), as well as a reality TV show that he starred in, and his government salary.
Though speculation about Hawass’s personal wealth became something of a sport among Egyptians frustrated by the Mubarak government’s lack of transparency, even those who saw him as the ultimate opportunist may be forced to accept him back into the fold if he can again funnel billions of dollars into the public purse.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if Hawass was reinstated as Minister,” says Nora Shalaby, an Egyptologist and political activist.
Though some Egyptologists believe Hawass was, as International Association of Egyptologists President James Allen puts it, “responsible for the Egyptian public’s renewed interest in and respect for their Pharaonic legacy,” many Egyptians resented him for what they describe as his shabby treatment of local people and domestic archeologists.
Shalaby points out that the “countless concrete walls he built around towns and villages to separate the inhabitants from the antiquity sites” infuriated civilians even as his policy of announcing every major find soured the attitude of professional diggers.
Whalid Saad, a museum guide, says that the protesters crowded around the museum knew, contrary to what Hawass was telling the media, that antiquities had been broken.
“We found pieces in the street and had to carry them back inside,” says Saad. “Some Egyptians helped us collect them.”
