After four years of extensive conservation work on this amazing ancient Egyptian mummy coffin, the cartonnage is finally going on display!

Join the Museum's very own Fantastic Four; Verena, Barbara, Helene and John (open flames are not permitted in the Museum, so none of them are the Human Torch... and owing to the teams dexterity we're pretty sure none of them are the Thing either) for an update on the final work to get this incredible object ready for display and further study.

View the object now in gallery 62 at the British Museum.

The conservation and the making of this film was generously sponsored by the John S Cohen Foundation.
