The ‘Pharaohs’ Golden Parade’: Egyptian royal mummies moved to new home in Cairo

A grand parade of 22 ancient Egyptian royal mummies made its way across Cairo on April 3, 2021, to a new museum home where they will be displayed in greater splendour. The convoy carried special capsules containing the remains of 18 kings and four queens from the Egyptian Museum to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilisation about 7km (4 miles) away.
