At the end of a list of other short reviews of UK museums: "Come here and you get a taste not just of Egyptian life circa 2005BC but of student life circa AD2005. Dotted all around the campus, two miles from Swansea city centre, are signs pointing the way to poster sales, ads saying "Drummer Wanted" and crowds of gossiping undergraduates en route to lectures or coffee bar. The museum is aimed at an even younger age group, with primary schoolchildren regularly packing its two floors, which in terms of subject matter could not be more clearly delineated. "Upstairs is the House of Life," says the girl on the reception desk. "Downstairs is Death." It's down here that the museum guide, Gaenor, is holding her young listeners spellbound with her demonstration of how the Egyptians used to remove and store human entrails pre-mummification."
