The Quest for Immortality: Treasures of Ancient Egypt. From the earliest times, Egyptians denied the physical impermanence of life. They formulated a remarkably complex set of religious beliefs and funneled vast material resources into the quest for immortality. This exhibition focuses on the understanding of the afterlife among Egyptians some 3,000 years ago, in the period of the New Kingdom (1550-1069 BC) through the Late Period (664-332 BC).
The New Kingdom marked the beginning of an era of great wealth, power, and stability for Egypt, and was accompanied by a burst of cultural activity, much of which was devoted to the quest for eternal life. The exhibition is divided into six sections: Journey to the Afterworld, The New Kingdom, The Royal Tomb, Tombs of Nobles, The Realm of the Gods, and The Tomb of Thutmose III. The exhibition is supported in part by Chevy Chase Bank. Press Materials (6/28/02) Press Materials (6/26/02) Press Materials (6/26/02) Press Materials (6/20/02) ODYSSEY/Egypt. ODYSSEY/Egypt.
