Museum Staff regularly run Ancient Egyptian workshops. Students learn about life in Ancient Egypt and why the Irish Linen Centre has a special artifact from the Tomb of Tutankhamen.
The Ancient Egyptians wrote with an alphapbet called hieroglyphs.
When they wrote a name they made an oval name plate known as a cartouche.
You can make your own cartouche at home!
