About
The National Museum of Beirut is the country's principal archaeological museum, tracing Lebanese history from prehistory to the Mamluk era. Highlights include the Phoenician anthropoid sarcophagi, the gold-leaf mummies of Aachqout and the celebrated Byblos royal tombs. A short film recounts how the collection survived the civil war sealed behind concrete casings.
