 The museum displays a 2 @,@ 400 @-@ year @-@ old female Egyptian mummy on loan from the New Brunswick Theological Seminary . The mummy , which dates to 320 or 330 B.C. in the Ptolemaic era , was discovered in Northern Egypt and brought back to the United States by a Dutch Reformed missionary who served there in the early 1700s . Little else is known about the mummy 's origins , but it was stored in a closet at the seminary until 1968 when it was first put on display .
