it’s an unparalleled opportunity for visitors to experience a journey through time. The museum’s 12 Main Galleries are designed to chronicle Egypt’s entire ancient history, showcasing over 15,000 artifacts from various dynasties and periods. These galleries provide a window into the evolution of Egyptian society, culture, religion, and royal legacies, from the earliest prehistoric times to the Graeco-Roman era. Divided into four primary sections, each gallery captures the essence of a specific period, offering you a remarkable insight into the ancient world.
- Prehistoric to Second Intermediate Period:
Egypt saw the rise of divine kingship and pyramid building, but power later fragmented, with a strong focus on the afterlife.
- Middle Kingdom to Second Intermediate Period:
Central power was restored, and funerary practices extended to the common people, reflecting a more inclusive religious system.
- New Kingdom:
Egypt’s golden age of expansion, wealth, and grand temples under rulers like Ramesses II, with strong devotion to gods like Amun-Ra.
- Third Intermediate to Graeco-Roman Period:
Despite foreign rule, Egyptian traditions blended with Greco-Roman culture, preserving core beliefs in gods and the afterlife.
