With the arrival of the Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of Pharaohs exhibition at Philadelphia's Franklin Institute in February 2007, Penn Museum's complementary exhibit Amarna: Ancient Egypt's Place in the Sun sets the contextual basis as the first step to a total Tut experience. This exhibit will feature more than 100 ancient artifacts, some never before on display-including statuary of gods, goddesses and royalty, monumental reliefs, golden jewelry as well as personal items from the royal family, and artists' materials from the royal workshops of Amarna.
