A couple of days ago Jane Akshar posted that the mummification bed found inside one of he storage jars from tomb KV63 has now been installed in the Luxor Mummification Museum. I'd assumed the post was little more than the headline ... Mistake, Kate! Jane was allowed to take photos. It's hard taking photos of items in poor light inside glass cabinets so Jane has done the best she can, but it's a treat to have new angles. So don't make my mistake - take a look at her post!
This bed will surely increase visitor numbers to the museum if people know it's there.

Even with the bed i still think the mummification museum is pretty poor. On the face of it, it could have been an excellent concept, ie an educational tool, much more detail and demonstrations (not actual demos i might add)of the mummification proces and techniques explained. But all you have is a few glass cases.
