Archaeology!
One of the places we visited in Ann Arbor was the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.It was terrific, and I took some photographs to share with you. The light was extremely reflection-friendly, so apologies in advance.
There was a special exhibit about color, but here are a few general images first. You can enlarge them for a better view by clicking on them directly.

Like I said, reflections, but how stunning is this?
Inside next. I wonder how many hundreds of hours it took to complete one of these:
Here's a fine collection of ancient seals:
And a few more:
More tomorrow!
