The Coptic Museum entry in the Encyclopedia of the Modern Middle East and North Africa, accessed via Encyclopedia.com and published by the Gale Group, is a general reference encyclopedia article on the Cairo museum's holdings and history. Its authority rests on Gale's standard reference publishing editorial process, reliable for the kind of broad, uncontroversial factual summary a general encyclopedia entry provides. It is not a specialist scholarly study of Coptic art or of the museum's individual collections, which needs a dedicated source.
