The Museum of El-Salaam School was known as "the Faculty of Americans" and located near
Assiut University in Assiut governorate, about 380 Km south of Cairo. The Museum consists
of two large rooms; the first room includes Pottery vessels, Oil lamps, Ushabti, Funerary
cones, Canopic jars, Wooden and Basalt statues, Funerary steals, Soul houses, Glass wares
and wooden bolt-lock. The second room includes Coffins, Psalms of David and Mummified
animals. The contents of the museum came from the excavation of Petrie at Rifeh, as a
donation to the museum by Sayed Pasha Khashaba(a). The finds are exhibited within old
wooden display-windows and labeled with two numbers, the Petrie's excavation number, and
the Ministry of Antiquities' recording number. The display-windows are arranged spatially in
alphabetical ordering, A, B, C, D, etc. The displayed pottery finds are the dominant feature
among the Museum's collection, which date back to different Egyptian historical periods.
