1620s doublet after conservation
The Perth mummy, Ta-Kr-Hb
The project, Conservation in Action: Saving the Perth Mummy, showcases how museums look after the fragile objects in their care. A highlight of the exhibition is the museum’s ancient Egyptian mummy, Ta-Kr- Hb. The story of Ta-Kr-Hb is one that has fascinated visitors and staff since she was first presented to the Perth Museum from Alloa Museum in the 1930s.
