Come check out the incredible discovery of the royal tombs of Tanis and learn all about Egypt’s silver pharaohs!
In 1939, archaeologist Pierre Montet unearthed the royal tombs of Tanis, revealing breathtaking treasures—including gold masks, jewelry, and rare solid silver coffins, a material seldom used in ancient Egypt. These discoveries rivaled Tutankhamun’s, yet were overshadowed by the outbreak of World War II. Join the historian of Koreshan State Park for a fascinating talk exploring the forgotten splendor of these Silver Pharaohs and the times in which they lived.
Program is free with paid park admission fee. Free for Florida State Park Pass holders.
