Look on my works, ye mighty … Ozymandias statue found in mud | World news | The Guardian
'The sun temple in Heliopolis was founded by Ramses II, lending weight to the likelihood the statue is of him, archaeologists say. '
'The joint Egyptian-German expedition also found the upper part of a life-sized limestone statue of Pharaoh Seti II, Ramses II’s grandson, measuring 80cm in length. '
'If they are successful and the colossus is proven to depict Ramses II, it will be moved to the entrance of the Grand Egyptian Museum, set to open in Giza in 2018. '
'The number of tourists visiting Egypt slumped to 9.8 million in 2011 from more than 14.7 million in 2010. '
'The discovery was made in the working-class area of Matariya, among unfinished buildings and mud roads. '
