Yeah they have no interest in fast revealing everything at once. Egypt's GDP largely depends on these Antiquities so you want to mine them as slow as possible.

Do you blame them for trying to protect and control things? It might be a little extreme, but we also need to remember that rich folks used to uncover mummies in their parties for fun.
Controlling physical artefacts is fine.
Stopping any science results that may be contrary to the Egyptian government's official view of history is awful!

And eat them, which... that's just like, really fucking weird.
Didn't they also crushed parts of them and snorted the powder at parties for fun?
