The Putnam Museum's most iconic gallery, home of our two mummies, reopened August 22, 2009. Step into an ancient Egyptian tomb, where you will learn how the people lived and what they required for a pleasant afterlife. Visit the new computer interactive station to explore the mummies, inside and out, through the magic of CT imagery. Find out how forensic anthropologists reconstruct facial features or determine the sex of a body.
See live footage of our mummy! "Unearthing Ancient Egypt" ON EXHIBIT NOW!
