Abstract:

The Egyptian collection at the Museum was recently reorganized and updated after over 20 years on display. This reinstallation has allowed for updated educational material to be produced, a rearrangement of the objects into a thematic display, and for new items to be added to the display. The gallery’s reorganized display cases now introduce three important themes: The Afterlife and Funerary Practices, Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Egypt, and Artisan Craft and Technology.
