My trip to the Ancient Egyptian afterlife

Since I wrote about visiting the Egyptian exhibition at the ArtScience Museum, I thought I would upload a few pictures I captured that day - not many as I was too engrossed in the artefacts, plus we aren't suppose to take pictures of the artefacts.

One of my two absolute favourite artefacts on display that day: "Sandstone stela of a God's Wife of Amun dating to the 26th Dynasty from Thebes"

My second absolute favourite artefact on display that day: "Shabtis ranging from the 18th to 25th Dynasty"

The souvenir shop - where I basically spent all my money
