Where practicable original type materials have been used to make the treasures shown in the exhibition as close as possible to the original in Egypt.

The reconstruction of the anti - chamber of the tomb has been made with care and accuracy. It is exactly as it was when Howard Carter entered it in 1922. The burial chamber has been recreated to show the moment the golden coffins were removed from the sarcophagus.
