Description:
What do Cleopatra, Tutankhamen and the Return of the Mummy have in common? Well your family will be able to find out all about the first two, and much more besides, in this impressive and prestigious museum. It tells the long story of Egyptian History from the times of the Pharaohs through life under the Romans to how people live in the Nile valley today. It will be of especial interest to any teenager who is studying Textiles in KS4. A highlight is the amazing lifelike mummy portraits painted during the Roman period.
