Plan Now to Walk Like an Egyptian
King Tut, Egypt's famed boy pharaoh (and star of the touring "Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs" exhibition which is drawing crowds around the country), grew up in a place called Amarna more than 3,000 years ago. This city flourished -- and then disappeared -- in little more than 25 years. What happened? The exhibition "Amarna, Ancient Egypt's Place in the Sun" at the Penn Museum in Philadelphia attempts to answer that question with an array of ancient artifacts. Learn about Tutankhamun's royal court at Amarna starting November 12th and then starting February 3, 2007, visit the Franklin Institute to see more glorious and golden King Tut items. Note that you can preregister online for both exhibitions -- which is probably a good idea, given how popular they are likely to be!
