10 artifacts a day, and you guess where and when each one's from. Anthropeum.com if anyone wants to give it a shot and leave feedback :)

The Lady of Elche — an iconic Iberian limestone bust from the 4th century BCE.
The intricate headdress, layered jewelry, and calm expression make it one of the most striking pieces of pre-Roman art in Europe.

Crab on a silver tetradrachm from Akragas, Sicily, dated 479–412 BC, photographed at Casa de la Moneda in Madrid. More than 2,400 years later, the design is still sharp and instantly recognizable.

Good morning.
We are many sided, diverse in the colors we keep. Embracing them, and those of others, offers a blurring harmony we need to choose to seek.
Have a great Saturday.

Have you ever seen a tropical gasflame? 👀 This colorful critter is a nudibranch. Notice the tentacle-like structures on its body? They’re called cerata: Nudibranchs use them to store stinging cells from prey like jellyfish

When visitors first step into the Train Shed, they are awed by the size of the Weyerhaeuser locomotive and often wonder aloud, "How did they get those IN here?" It can be hard to see past the rolling stock, but the answer is quite simple: REALLY BIG DOORS!

generations remains unknown. The room itself is genuine and contains impressive historic features, including an ornate seventeenth-century ceiling. Today, the Ghost Room remains a fascinating part of Bolling Hall, combining history, mystery and an eerie atmosphere. #Folklore #Heritage #Museums

I don't think there is a starter pack for archaeological museums/collections and archaeologists who work in museums.
So I made one myself. If you want to be included in the list, just let me know.
