The Enigma of Jewellery in Ancient Egypt

Date: 2.00 p.m. - 3.30 p.m. Saturday, 13th June.

£6.50

This talk, exploring ancient Egyptian jewellery, culminates the trio of talks given by author and speaker Justin Newland in Somerset this spring. Today, we wear jewellery to enhance and adorn. But this wasn’t so for the Ancient Egyptians, who wore jewellery for religious and functional reasons.
From armbands to ankle bands, pectorals to diadems, Justin celebrates the wonder and mystery of jewellery in ancient Egypt. The talk will appeal to art lovers, history students, those fascinated by Egypt, or anyone curious about the enigmas of life.
