Highlights include Late Period coffins with mummies, gilded funerary masks, finely crafted bronze statuettes of deities, exquisite New Kingdom relief stele, Iranian Luristan bronzes, ancient Near Eastern cylinder seals, Attic Greek pottery, ancient gold jewelry, and an encyclopedic collection of ancient glass.
