The Pharaoh's Treasures

Through January in the Museum – The Pharaoh’s Treasures, an accompanying temporary exhibition for the film, Mummies: Secrets of the Pharaohs

eg

See exacting replicas created by the famous Pharaonic Village of Giza of some of the most amazing relics of the past, as they open a window into the fascinating and mysterious world of the Pharaohs.  Find out how researchers and explorers piece together the archeological and biological clues to understand Egyptian mummies. In addition to increasing our understanding of their culture, religion, medicine, and daily life thousands of years ago, scientists today continue to study the Pharaohs, mummies and decipher ancient texts to gain insight into our modern human existence and even possible new scientific and medical advancements. To unwrap the secrets of the Pharaohs is to perhaps glimpse the future of our own civilization.

The Pharaoh’s Treasures will be on display in the museum’s ExploraZone Gallery, and will allow visitors to come face-to-face with the mysteries of these rulers of ancient Egypt.
