Aswan Museum is a museum on Elephantine Island, in the south-eastern side of Aswan, Egypt.It opened to the public in 1912 and features Nubian artefacts saved during the construction of the Aswan Dam. In 1990 a new extension was added displaying findings discovered on Elephantine Island itself, like utensils, weapons, pottery and mummies.[1]
The museum is close to the Ruins of Abu, where excavations are still taking place.
