CAIRO, Dec. 28-- At the yard of the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) near the Great Pyramids of Giza, Egypt celebrated on Saturday in an open-air ceremony setting a new Guinness World Record for the largest mosaic of ancient Egyptian King Tutankhamun's mask made of coffee cups. "The mosaic of King Tut's mask is made of 7,260 cups of coffee, which is a plus for the GEM whose opening is awaited by the whole world in late 2020," Mostafa Waziri, secretary-general of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, told Xinhua during the ceremony. The mosaic of Egypt's world-famous boy king's mask was carried out by a group of Egyptian youth. |
