Aswan Nubian Seated Statue EG052918JHP Aswan Egyptian Nubian Museum seated Menthuhotep-Aa, beloved of Satis, Lady of Elephantine, a quartzite statue from the First Intermediate period and an exhibit in this modern building whose foundations were laid in 1986, opened in 1997 and organised through UNESCO.
