A royal colossus is seen during a press conference announcing the transfer of its parts to the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, Egypt, on March 16, 2017. Egyptian minister of antiquities Khaled al-Anany said on Thursday that the royal colossus discovered last week at the Cairo district of Matariya is probably a statue of Psammetich I, a pharaoh from the 26th dynasty who ruled Egypt between 664 and 610 B.C., rather than King Ramses II as believed earlier, according to state-run Ahram Online.
