Hall: Ancient Egypt
 Baboons warm
themselves in the rising sun, birds gather on a muddy riverbank,
and a tiny beetle pushes a ball of dung across the sand. These
natural rhythms of life led ancient Egyptians to create a belief
system that lasted more than 3,000 years.
Discover why these
animals were deified, explore 2,300-year-old Ptolemaic Period
mummies, and sniff the aromas of mummification in this exhibit
hall.
