I have a British friend who legitimately smuggled a few pieces of the pyramids out of Egypt for her friends (they neeeeeeded souvenirs) and I'm pretty sure I've been left one of her remaining pieces in her will. I'm not sure if I should take it back to Egypt and find a spot for it or just shrug and be all "my pyramid now"

IANAL but I'm 90% sure that's highly illegal even in the UK nowadays, so I at the very least wouldn't accept the piece lest I get nailed for the crime.

Assuming it's an actual real piece of the pyramid, like they chipped it off the real structure or something. If they bought it from, say, a street vendor in Egypt then it's most likely fake in which case there would be no problems.
