Exhibition: More re The Golden King and the Great Pharaohs (U.S.)

Thanks very much to Stan Parchin for the information that the exhibition The Golden King and the Great Pharaohs (the first U.S. stop of which is in Atlanta) has the same exhibits as the one recently shown in Vienna. The title has changed, but the contents are the same.

And there's some additional coverage on Egypt Daily Star News:

The exhibition, also to include the latest scientific research about King Tut, will contain artifacts from the 4th Dynasty into the Late Period (about 2600 BC to 660 BC). They come from sources including temples and royal tombs. Many have never before been seen in the US.

Four galleries devoted to King Tut will correspond to the four rooms of his nearly intact tomb where the treasures were discovered by British explorer Howard Carter in 1922. Legendary artifacts from the antechamber, the annex, the treasury and the burial chamber will include Tutankhamun's golden sandals, jewelry, furniture, weaponry and statuary, exhibit officials said.

The exhibition also will include the largest image of King Tut ever found — a three-meter statue that originally may have stood at Tutankhamun's mortuary temple and retains much of its original paint. One of the four gold and precious-stone-inlaid coffinettes that contained his mummified internal organs also will be exhibited.
