Because they are too big to transport to British museums

What’s the most British thing in the British museum?

The name.

The British Museum has allegedly dismissed a member of staff over "stolen" items

Which is ironic..

Why are there pyramids in Egypt?

What is something that feels british but isn’t?

The contents of the British Museum.

When the curator of The British Museum was asked how they felt about exotic & foreign art exhibitions, he replied...

I tried to tell a joke in the British Museum once...

but the sarcophagus gave me a death stare.

I recently took a trip to learn more about Greek culture and to gain a greater appreciation of their amazing works of art and architecture.

The British museum is a really cool place.

My son just had his first day at the British Museum, his first task was to guard a multi million pound glass vase...

Apparently he said he smashed it!

There is a dinosaur in the British museum that is 3 million and 24 years old.

I know this because when I visited it 24 years ago, it was 3 million years old.
