An Egyptological Gem
London’s other great store house of the archaeological finds from Ancient Egypt and Sudan is tucked away up some stairs in UCL. When the security guards scream at you for an ID card, make it clear you’re visiting the museum!
They currently have a display of Lee Miller’s Egyptian photograph to tie in with the new biopic – you owe yourself a vist! https://www.ucl.ac.uk/culture/petrie-museum
Faience is a common sight on new West End buildings – none of it as old as this! 
Imagine your Maybelline lasting over 3000 years! 
Remarkably well preserved guyliner with contents! 
Some of the oldest complete garments from the ancient world – dazzling 
Supposedly erotic dress – but too heavy to wear! 
The big draw at this museum… 
Caricature goes back a long way – shades of George IV 
Well presereved Roman two toed socks 
Even Roman baby dolls were creepy!
