The exhibition features an extraordinary collection of 250 precious artefacts on loan from the SCA of Egypt, drawn from seven of its affiliated museums.

The precious artefacts include monumental statues, painted and inscribed stone stelae, mummy coffins and masks, jewellery, everyday objects, and animal mummies.
