NewsLetter
Takabuti – a mummy from the 7th century BC – was brought back to its home inside the Ulster Museum on Monday as part of the preparations for the building's re-opening later in the year.
The mummy has been given a new spot in the newly-refurbished museum – which has been closed for almost three years – as a centrepiece of a display exploring life and death in ancient Egypt.
As well as discovering Takabuti's secrets, visitors will learn more about the process of mummification, the gods worshipped by the ancient Egyptians and some of their customs and practices.
The mummy – probably the best-known object featured in the museum – is one of the first major items to be returned as curators begin putting together all the exhibitions in time for an autumn re-opening.
Over the next few months, thousands of items will be making their return trip to the museum.
