I don't usually post discoveries from the Amenhotep III temple on the West Bank as there have been so many of them, but this one is worth a mention:
Statue of Egyptian king Amenhotep III found
This is presumably one of the bodies relating to the large heads which were found in the early 19th century and in about 1960, of which two were brought by Salt to the British Museum.

SCA news: Hussein Bassir has been appointed as supervisor of the Grand Egyptian Museum; his predecessor was removed a couple of weeks ago.
