A DEAF Media Docent Tour:
Thirty years after the original exhibition came to San Francisco, Tutankhamun, the celebrated “boy king” of ancient Egypt, returns to the de Young Museum. The glorious exhibition Tutankhamun
and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs features more than 130 artifacts from
the tomb of Tutankhamun and those of his royal predecessors, his family, and
court officials, providing insight into the life of royalty from Egypt’s 18th Dynasty (1555–1305 BC). All the treasures in the exhibition are more than 3,000 years old.
