The British Museum has removed the word #Palestine from displays about the ancient Middle East following complaints.

Maps and information boards about ancient Egypt and the seafaring Phoenicians labelled the eastern coast of the Mediterranean as Palestine, and some peoples were described as being “of Palestinian descent”

And so the British Museum has decided to remove that word.

Who do you think made those complaints?
