The exhibition will showcase over 300 objects from the collection of the Museo Egizio.

Covering 3,000 years of history, from the very beginning to the Roman conquest, the exhibition will take an up-to-date look at Ancient Egyptian civilization, putting a human face on the age-old, strongly hierarchical society, whose backbone was formed by the majestic Nile River.

Fishermen, artisans, farmers, scribes, priests, and pharaohs… learn more about the organization of Egyptian society and power, as well as the central role that common people played in the emergence of this remarkable, extraordinarily long-lasting civilization. Work tools, everyday items, and jewelry will be displayed alongside monumental sculptures and statues, sarcophagi, stelae, and mummies
