There's that glowering "eye with paint" hieroglyph meaning "watch", in the name of the crocodile "He Who Watches What He Would Seize", one of my favourite characters in the Book of the Dead. The designs and hieroglyphs are painted directly onto the mummy linen.
Where: Medelhavsmuseet, Stockholm

Relief with god Tutu
flickr
A relief of Tutu depicted as a sphinx, with a sun disc above his front-facing head and a rearing snake for a tail. He stands on another rearing snake, and has weapons in his paws -- knives in his back paws, and in his front left paw, a little double-headed axe. A winged sun-disc with a snake draped over it hovers over him.
When: Ptolemaic Egypt / Roman Egypt
Where: Medelhavsmuseet, Stockholm

The “Cyprus through the Ages” Collection at Medelhavsmuseet in Stockholm. This exhibit covers 7000 years of Cypriot archaeological history, with special focus on excavations at Ayia Irini/Akdeniz.
The Swedish Cyprus Exhibition lasted between 1927 to 1931. The findings of the exhibition were divided between Sweden and the British colonial government of Cyprus. The other part of the collection can now be found at the Cyprus Museum in Nicosia.
Special thanks to @cypriot_music on Instagram for the submission!
The collection at Medelhavsmuseet is still ongoing, and if you have the opportunity to visit Stockholm, consider checking out this exhibit!
