All About Mummification Egypt Study Day
Entertaining lectures and workshops delivered by expert Egyptologists
Join world leading mummification experts Prof Joann Fletcher and Dr Stephen Buckley, and Bolton Museum’s Curator Ian Trumble. Bolton’s Egypt Study Day “All About Mummification” focuses on two key strengths of the collection: mummification and burial textiles, featuring the work of the University of York’s Mummy Research Group. Co-founded by Dr Stephen Buckley and Prof Joann Fletcher who have been researching aspects of the Bolton collection with their colleagues for over 35 years, their discoveries include the world’s oldest evidence for Egyptian mummification based on the analysis of textiles in Bolton’s collection and the likely royal lineage of the Unknown Man, a mummified body housed within the Thutmose III burial chamber gallery.
