“Mummies. Unwrapping the past” is the result of a collaboration between the Bologna Archaeological Museum and the Eurac Research Institute for Mummy Studies. The two institutions began working together in 2019 when it was decided that two Egyptian mummies housed in the museum’s storerooms since the late 1970s should be exhibited for both the scientific community and the public: the mummy with the painted shroud and the mummy of a child with three tunics.
