VISITORS can sample life in ancient Egypt at a new museum exhibition.
A decorated mummy case is just one of many exhibits now on show at the Royal Pump Room Museum, in Harrogate.
The Discover Ancient Egypt exhibition also includes many objects used in everyday life - and death - by Egyptians living thousands of years ago.
The museum is running trails for younger visitors. Also for the visitors, there are clothes to try on, objects to handle and a mummy book to investigate.
Visitors watched a poetry drama on the death of Tutankhamun, while sampling food served by a local Egyptian restaurant, at the launch on Saturday.
The Discover Ancient Egypt exhibition runs at the museum until September.
