Petrie Museum

Egyptian and Sudanese archaeology in a university collection small enough to explore at your own pace.

Make it part of your day

The collection explores the lives of people in the ancient Nile Valley. Choose a few cases to look at closely rather than trying to take everything in. Its afternoon hours matter: this is an option to plan around, rather than an assumed morning stop.
