Mummies are making a comeback! Take the “Mummies of the World” exhibit at Bowers Museum for instance, the largest collection of its kind. The display of the dead and their ancient artifacts come to museum goers by way of Egypt, Europe and South America. Some of the mummies date back to 4,500 years! The exhibit also dabbles in the present using modern multimedia to educate folks on how mummification works and how science can help unravel what mummies tell us about our past. All mummies, whether naturally or intentionally preserved, are presented with “respect and dignity.” Don’t miss out on the most mummy fun since las momias de Guanajuato!
