Life Everlasting : The National Museums Scotland Collection of Ancient Egyptian Coffins, Hardback Book

Life Everlasting : The National Museums Scotland Collection of Ancient Egyptian Coffins Hardback

Hardback

Description

National Museums Scotland is home to a world-class collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts.

Though a public collection for 150 years, its breadth and depth remains largely unknown.

This book aims to bring to public attention the many exceptional funerary items which include the royal burial group from Qurna, the coffin of the priest Iufenaumun, and the unusual double-coffin and mummies of the young half-brothers, Petamun and Penhorpabik.

In bringing the collection to light, this book provides a wider understanding of its history, including the numerous figures who were responsible for acquiring, researching and preserving it over the years - egyptologists, curators and historians.
