SHOWING JUNE 15 - NOVEMBER 24, 2012: King Tut: Treasures of the Tomb Ten years in the making, from the artisans of the Pharaonic Village in Giza, Egypt and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this dazzling collection of Tutankhamen’s legendary treasures recreates the richest archaeological find of all time. With over 131 pieces displayed of the pharaoh’s sacred and personal possessions, along with associated artifacts from the period surrounding Tutankhamen’s reign, this exhibit reconstructs both the historic discovery of the tomb by Howard Carter and the life and times of Egypt’s most celebrated boy-king.
