About

The Dead Speak: Friday 31 July, 6pm (for persons age 16 plus)

For thousands of years, Egypt’s dead have whispered their stories through linen wrappings, painted coffins, and the treasures sealed beside them. In this revealing talk, we step beyond the clichés to explore what mummies truly tell us about power, belief, identity, and the astonishing craft of ancient embalming.

From hidden chambers to overlooked objects, from royal burials to ordinary graves, we’ll uncover the secrets that the ancient Egyptians never expected us to read.

Join us for an evening where the past speaks clearly, the evidence is surprising, and the dead are anything but silent.
Suitable for 16+

£6 per person, booking essential via ticketsource
