"Excavating Archaeology @ U-M: 1817-2017" brings together artifacts from the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Anthropological Archaeology. On this tour, learn about the development of the collections at both museums and the development of archaeology as a discipline. Artifacts in this exhibition are from around the globe (Egypt, Cyprus, Philippines, China, Iran, New Mexico, and more), and span more than 4,000 years of human history.
