| The Museum's collection includes funerary objects and remains from Egypt, including mummies, coffins, Books of the Dead, images of bronze and stone, scarabs, and the funerary boat of Senwosret III. Edward Ayer, who began to assemble the collection in 1894, also contributed two intact chapel rooms from the tombs of Unis-ankh and Netcher-user. In the exhibit Inside Ancient Egypt, a large subset of this assemblage gives visitors a sense of Egyptian life through its focus on death. | ||||||||
