After long neglect by Egyptologists, recent decades have seen coffins finally become a serious object of study. This not only embraces the work of individual scholars, but also international study-projects and dedicated exhibitions and conferences. The volume under review is a fruit of the latter, held in conjunction with an exhibition at the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, in April 2016.
