With Dr. Jonathan Elias, Director of the Akhmim Mummy Studies Consortium
Ongoing research has brought forth new perspectives on Tjeby, the 4,000-year-old Egyptian mummy in the VMFA collection. Scanned in February 2013, Tjeby has been the subject of rare in-depth study. Learn about Tjeby’s times and the research process that gave birth to his sculptural portrait, to be unveiled for the first time at this lecture.
