The inscriptions on Nesyamun’s coffin were finally translated and published in 2008 by the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society. They note that “it is most gratifying to see the collections of the Old Philosophical Hall on display again ... especially the Leeds Mummy with its 3,000 year old message to the gods of antiquity” (Hatton in Wassell 2008,
preface). Nesyamun’s coffin inscriptions are predominantly made up of prayers from the Book of the Dead funerary texts.
The project also provided a unique opportunity to further study one of the most iconic attractions in Leeds City Museum, and add to current understanding through a full-body CT scan.
