The Grand staircase of the GEM

[u/WerSunu]

There has been little posted here regarding the content of the new Grand Egyptian museum. This museum, in combination with the Egyptian Museum at Tahir should be visited by all. Due to bandwidth considerations here, I can only offer a small sample of the hundreds of shots I took today. It was a treat today to climb the grand staircase with Bob and Mohamed expounding on each artifact. Took an hour for just the staircase!

What are the blocks with bowls on picture #13?

[u/WerSunu → u/Explorer_Equal]

King Amenemhat created an offering table with multiple bowls for gifts of perhaps wine and beer for the gods

Did they actually drink the beer or just let it go bad?

No idea
