Four New Objects Added to Tutankhamun Exhibition

Suite 101 (Stan Parchin)
A pectoral, bracelet and nested fetus coffins have joined "Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs" for the exhibition's encore tour of the United States.

All four artifacts, found in the Treasury of the tomb of Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun (r. 1332-1322 B.C.), will be on view at the Dallas Museum of Art (October 3, 2008-May 17, 2009) and two additional American venues as yet unannounced. Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs has already visited three European and four United States cities.
