EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Bag of Natron from Tutankhamun's Embalming Cache, dating back to c. 1336-27 B. C. The bag, made of linen and filled with natron, is an extraordinary artifact from the Egyptian 18th Dynasty (c. 1567-1320 BC). Currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this piece offers a fascinating glimpse into ancient Egyptian burial practices. Natron played a crucial role in the mummification process as it acted as a natural desiccant that helped preserve the body during embalming. This particular bag was discovered in Egypt's Valley of the Kings, specifically Upper Egypt near Thebes. It originates from the New Kingdom 18th dynasty and belongs to the Amarna Period during Tuttankhamun's reign. Excavated by Davis/Ayrton between 1907 and 1908, this textile relic provides valuable insights into funerary customs practiced by ancient Egyptians. Its presence within Tutankhamun's embalming cache suggests its significance for preserving his royal remains. The image beautifully captures both historical and artistic elements associated with ancient Egypt – from its symbolic connection to death and rebirth to intricate craftsmanship showcased through delicate linen weaving techniques. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back thousands of years ago when kings were laid to rest amidst grand tombs along the Nile River. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to human ingenuity and reverence for life
