"In about a week, tests will reveal whether the art on an Egyptian vase on show at the Royal Pump Room Museum is of international importance or the work of a brilliant forger.The vase itself, which shows the image of a boat carrying a body curled into a foetal position, is genuine. Two years of tests at York University have traced the object and parts of its decorative paint to 3,200BC, predating the times of the pyramids and the Pharaohs". See the article for some comments re the vase. Obviously, I will update the blog as soon as more information is available about this important artefact.
