The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC) on Sunday received 128 artifacts from the Egyptian Museum in preparation for a temporary exhibit on the Egyptian ancient crafts. 

The exhibit, dubbed “The Egyptian crafts through ages” will also include artifacts from the Museum of Islamic Art and the Coptic Museum as well as other archaeological sites, said a well-placed official. 

The exhibit comes in the framework of preparations for the partial opening of NMEC, the museum information officer said.
