The security vacuum now present throughout Egypt following the 18-day uprising against former President Hosni Mubarak has severely threatoned Egypt's historic sites and its ancient cultural legacy. Archaeological sites increasingly continue to be looted, vandalized and outright destroyed.

The March 9th, 2013 article from the Egyptian Independent highlights this.

Website of the Istituto Papirologico, "G. Vitelli" has a PDF version of the article.
