Before putting up this page the Director of the Museum, Christopher Kelly, was  contacted by email with all the relevant information..... but no reply. So another two emails were sent later. But still no response.

One can buy such as these at tourist markets in Egypt.

Something sort of interesting about some of his relief carvings>>>>>
