A report about ct scans of mummies from Brooklyn Museum and Nicholson Museum in Sydney.

There are currently 5,168 records online on the website of the museum and this will continue to grow over time.

A third of the Coptic sculptures at the Brooklyn Museum of Art are modern fakes. Its collection of late Egyptian sculpture was, until now, the second largest in North America. Brooklyn curator Dr Edna Russmann, who is concluding a study of the works, warns that other museums which acquired Coptic sculptures in the past 50 years are likely to face similar problems.

The Brooklyn Museum’s Library holds 11,710 glass lantern slides, the Egyptian part of the collection (101 photos) now has been posted on flicker.com.
