MFA Website Relaunch - new Giza Archive
www.mfa.org
Many thanks to Linda Woods from The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, for letting me know that the MFA has re-launched its Website, with enhanced functionality to encourage visitors to interact more deeply with the encyclopedic collection, exhibitions, and calendar of programs.
A notable new feature of the re-launch is an improved and expanded Giza Pyramid Archive which contains thousands of important photos, diary pages, maps, and panoramic views of sites from the MFA/Harvard University excavations from 1902 to 1947. The Archive has been reported to previously on this page, but is now linked to directly from the "Collections" page of the MFA website, making it easier to locate.

Have a look at the website to see all the changes and to find out more about the MFA's collections and forthcoming exhibitions.
