Just received my latest copy of “Ancient Egypt Magazine” (August/September issue) and read that there is a major new exhibition at the World Museum in Liverpool, about 25 miles from our offices. The new display will show some one thousand five hundred objects from its Egyptian collection.
It says that one of its’ great resources, the unique, vividly coloured belt of the last great Pharaoh, Ramses III, is going on display for the first time since the Second World War.
It sounds like an extensive exhibition and I’ll make sure that I pop down over the next few weeks. You can find more about “Ancient Egypt Magazine” at their website and also more about the exhibition in Liverpool at www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk
