Gorgeous.

What amazing colors and preservation.

That yellow ochre sure has some staying power. You think any of the major paint brand formulae could last for 2000 years?

Not being exposed to sunlight (UV radiation) all that time likely has a lot to do with it. I certainly hope the preservationists have taken that into consideration, otherwise, those beautiful colours are likely to fade quite rapidly, now that they’re once again exposed to open air and sunlight...
