Thursday, January 07, 2010
New York has always been something of a stage – a showplace for re-invention and second acts. And so it is fitting that in the vast space that once housed The New York Times printing presses, Discovery TSX now offers headlines of a different, but equally compelling sort. Discovery TSX also features a café with a wide variety of menu options and ample seating area and two exclusive retails experiences — The Discovery Store featuring the latest in games, dvds and other products from the #1 nonfiction company in the world and The New York Times Store with a wide range of exclusive items perfect for the newspaper enthusiast or history buff.
Now Discovery TSX is happy to offer its newest exhibit, King Tut. Behold the legendary treasures of King Tut. For the first time in a generation, revel in the splendor of the ancient Egyptian world as you view a dazzling array of possessions unearthed from his tomb, along with antiquities representing his family and contemporaries. Through 10 galleries and 130 artifacts, New York City will experience the world of the pharaohs like never before…
•See the boy king’s golden canopic coffinette and the crown found on his head when the tomb was discovered
•Learn about the extraordinary discovery of Tut’s tomb and the beliefs and funerary processes of ancient Egypt
•New scientific findings about King Tut will go on display for the first time in a gallery devoted to the latest DNA studies and other forensic information about his life and death.
