Egyptian mummy arrives for SA exhibition.

Egyptian mummy arrives for SA exhibition. :

"Australian Museum conservator Heather Bleechmore says the touring exhibition looks at ancient Egyptian rituals like the embalming of dead bodies."

Well, we have a 2,700 year old mummy called Keku as part of the new Egyptian exhibition. I can't see it failing! The Egyptian room at the museum has been a long time favourite and a while ago there was an astounding Egyptian exhibition at the art gallery which was absolutely packed on the day I went. We have a real fondness for things Egyptian and our children always go through a passionate phase about Egypt. This new exhibititon is opening in November and will be on until February. Must get myself along to see it. You'll be the first to know!!
