The Ägyptisches Museum has a rich collection with around 8,000 pieces on display. The collection spans five millennia, from 4000 BC to the early Christian period. In addition to the usual statues and sarcophagi, the museum also has an impressive display of Nubian ceramics and smaller artworks. The pride of the collection is a cedar wood arcophagus of Hedeb-bastet-iru with delicate relief carvings and still partly untranslated inscriptions.
