CAIRO, Dec 16 (MENA) - The General Supervisor on National Museum of Egyptian Civilization Mahrous Saeed, on behalf of the Antiquities Ministry, took part in the inauguration ceremony of the Museum of African Civilizations in the Senegalese capital Dakar.

The Antiquities Ministry has been keen on responding to the invitation it received to participate in the inauguration out of its belief in the important message that the museum sends about the history of peoples, a statement by the ministry quoted Saeed as saying on Sunday.

Culture and civilization are the most important ways to link peoples with each other, the statement read.

Saeed expressed admiration with the museum which was established in cooperation between the Senegalese and Chinese governments, adding that it sheds light on the African civilization via showcasing thousands of artifacts.
