This exhibition is now closed. 9 December 2006 - 29 April 2007
This extraordinary exhibition follows Keku, an Egyptian woman
who lived 2700 years ago, as she makes the perilous journey
through the underworld towards the eternal afterlife. It
features over 200 ancient Egyptian burial treasures – including
Keku’s mummy and her intricately decorated sarcophagus (coffin).
Egypt: Beyond the Tomb will inspire students right across the
year levels. It links with a range of curriculum areas,
especially social studies but also the arts, English,
technology, and science. Visit the exhibition website and click
on ‘Education kits’ to access resources for primary schools and
secondary schools.
