[EXPOSITION VIVRE ET MOURIR EN ÉGYPTE]

📣 À l'occasion de l'ouverture de l'exposition Vivre et mourir en Égypte, d'Alexandre le Grand à Cléopâtre le jeudi 27 juin, nous accueillons au musée un colloque qui se tient toute la journée à partir de 9h45. C'est l'occasion d'avoir un aperçu plus précis de la période ptolémaïque en écoutant des chercheuses et chercheurs de tout horizons qui ont directement travaillé à l'élaboration de l'exposition.

👀 Le colloque propose de se pencher sur des personnalités représentatives de l’époque ptolémaïque, dans leur exceptionnalité ou dans leur banalité. Ces personnalités, égyptiennes ou grecques, peuvent être des rois, des reines ou de simples particuliers. Destiné à la fois aux égyptologues, aux égyptophiles mais aussi plus largement au public amateur ou curieux, ce colloque abordera l’époque ptolémaïque de façon vivante en faisant rencontrer au public ses contemporains, leurs champs d’activités et leurs préoccupations.
