the room dedicated to Deir el-Medina? </p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">The site is located on the west bank of the Nile, opposite the city of Luxor, and it has been perfectly preserved because no modern city has been built over it since its abandonment. Deir el-Medina was the home of a community of artisans responsible for excavating and decorating the royal tombs of the nearby Valleys of the Kings and Queens. The context is unique because it preserves the remains of an entire village, a votive area, and a necropolis with some of the most beautiful non-royal tombs in Egypt. The site is particularly important because it has provided the most significant information about daily life in ancient Egypt. It was excavated by Ernesto Schiaparelli and the Missione Archeologica Italiana between 1905 and 1909.</p></div> <a href="/news/thots-gift-a2hxl-etlem-3rd2p-7yp85-gkaaw-7gszd-gkt76-xge29" class="summary-read-more-link">Read More &#8594;</a> <div class="summary-metadata-container summary-metadata-container--below-content"> <div class="summary-metadata summary-metadata--primary"> <!-- Timestamp --> <time class="summary-metadata-item summary-metadata-item--date" datetime="2024-03-28">Mar 28, 2024</time> </div> <div class="summary-metadata summary-metadata--secondary"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class=" summary-item summary-item-record-type-text sqs-gallery-design-carousel-slide summary-item-has-thumbnail summary-item-has-excerpt summary-item-has-tags summary-item-has-author summary-item-has-location" > <div class="summary-thumbnail-outer-container"> <a href="/news/thots-gift-a2hxl-etlem-3rd2p-7yp85-gkaaw-7gszd-gkt76" class=" summary-thumbnail-container sqs-gallery-image-container " data-title="The textile gallery opens" data-description="" > <div class="summary-thumbnail img-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" style=""> <!-- Main Image --> <img data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/1722519164647-FX3OU8FCELGM01PE08L9/DSC8490-NEF-1.jpg" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/1722519164647-FX3OU8FCELGM01PE08L9/DSC8490-NEF-1.jpg" data-image-dimensions="1200x781" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="The textile gallery opens" data-load="false" class="summary-thumbnail-image" elementtiming="summary-thumbnail-image-carousel" /> </div> </a> <!-- Products: Quick View --> </div> <div class="summary-content sqs-gallery-meta-container" data-animation-role="content"> <div class="summary-metadata-container summary-metadata-container--above-title"> <div class="summary-metadata summary-metadata--primary"> <!-- Timestamp --> <time class="summary-metadata-item summary-metadata-item--date" datetime="2024-02-20">Feb 20, 2024</time> </div> <div class="summary-metadata summary-metadata--secondary"> </div> </div> <div class="summary-title"> <a href="/news/thots-gift-a2hxl-etlem-3rd2p-7yp85-gkaaw-7gszd-gkt76" class="summary-title-link">The textile gallery opens</a></div> <div class="summary-metadata-container summary-metadata-container--below-title"> <div class="summary-metadata summary-metadata--primary"> <!-- Timestamp --> <time class="summary-metadata-item summary-metadata-item--date" datetime="2024-02-20">Feb 20, 2024</time> </div> <div class="summary-metadata summary-metadata--secondary"> </div> </div> <div class=" summary-excerpt summary-excerpt-only "><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">A new space opens today at the Museum: the textile gallery.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">The Museo Egizio houses an important collection of textiles that covers a period of over 5000 years.
