| Abstract | The Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural Hstory (NMNH) recently opened a new exhibi tion, Eternal Life in Ancient Egypt. Here, as in museums all over the world, visitors crowd around not only images and objects but the long dead Egyptians themselves. Now equipped with catalogue numbers, these were people who left behind monuments and tomb equipment. They also gifted us with their concerns, reflections, and imaginations inscribed in stone and set down on papyrus. No other ancient culture is preserved in such multi-perspective detail, spanning a period close to 5,000 years. |
