Egypt
Exhibition: More on Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs

"King Tutankhamun became perhaps the world’s oldest media darling when British archaeologists discovered his approximately 3,300-year-old tomb in 1922. A display of his treasures set traveling show attendance records when it went on nationwide tour in the ’70s. The Franklin Institute is trying to rival that fanfare as it hosts an updated and upgraded Tut exhibit that more than doubles the size of the previous blockbuster. Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs, running through Sept. 30, brings nearly 130 ancient Egyptian artifacts, many outside their home country for the first time, to Philadelphia — the last of four stops on a U.S. tour."
