Mummies of the World – Opening May 27 at Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science

Through modern science and interactive and engaging exhibits, Mummies of the World: The Exhibition will completely transform your perception of mummies and mummification.
Inside every mummy is a story waiting to be told. Mummies of the World: The Exhibition opens at Frost Science on Saturday, May 27. Come face-to-face with the largest touring collection of mummies ever assembled. The exhibition features the mummified remains of 40 real humans and animals and 80 rare artifacts from across the globe, providing a window into the lives of ancient people from nearly every region of the world including Europe, South America and Ancient Egypt.

This compelling collection, presented with reverence and dignity, will enthrall with dramatic displays of the mummies and their personal stories. State-of-the-art multimedia stations will take you on a 4,500-year journey to explore the histories and origins of the mummified remains, as well as how they were created. Inside every mummy is a story waiting to be told. The exhibition highlights real advances in the scientific methods used to study mummified remains, including Computed Tomography (CT), DNA analysis and radiocarbon dating, all of which allow researchers to learn about the lives, histories and cultures of these ancient people and animals.

Now is a great time to become a member to experience the exhibition before the general public. We will open the exhibition for an exclusive members-only extended preview on Friday, May 26. A feel-good bonus: Frost Science members support our mission, helping us to continue our work in the community and to benefit the environment.
