Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Kelsey Museum of Archaeology

The Kelsey Museum's Virtual Saturday Sampler tours are a great way to explore the ancient world from the comfort of your home.

The theme of this week's tour is "Animals in the Kelsey."
Animals abound in the art and artifacts of the ancient Middle East, Greece, Egypt, and Rome. On this guided tour, learn more about different aspects of animals in antiquity. We'll take a look at animal-themed artifacts in the Kelsey and ask: Was that animal food? A laborer? A pet? A sacrificial victim? We'll also discuss what kinds of animals were symbols of power and strength, and the meanings different animals had in the ancient world.

Organized By: Kelsey Museum of Archaeology

The Kelsey Museum has many fascinating tiny artifacts: amulets, coins, figurines, and seals. But those tiny artifacts are hard to see in person and are virtually impossible to include in in-person tours. In this virtual tour we will get up close to just some of the tiny artifacts at the Kelsey Museum from ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and Persia, and consider how they were used and what they reveal about the people of the ancient world.

The Kelsey Museum's Virtual Saturday Sampler tours are a great way to explore the ancient world from the comfort of your home.

This month we’re back with even more tiny artifacts with big stories. These artifacts are so small, they’re easily missed at the Kelsey Museum, and often appear as just a little circle or square, with the details a blur. This month we’ll get up close to more amulets, seals, coins, figurines, and jewelry, artifacts perfect for exploration in the virtual environment!

The Kelsey Museum's Virtual Saturday Sampler tours are a great way to explore the ancient world from the comfort of your home.

It may seem obvious that ancient cultures living along the Mediterranean, would rely heavily on the sea, not only as a means of travel but as a plentiful food source. The fishing industry was especially valuable in trade for other commodities such as grains and olive oil.

The importance of fish to the ancient world is found in many subtle (and small) ways across many of the Mediterranean cultures represented at the Kelsey. Join us to learn about the fishing industry, as we view some "fishy" decorations.

Masks are optional inside the Kelsey. For more information about our COVID procedures and how to prepare for your visit, please visit our website, https://myumi.ch/9PG1P.

The theme of this week's tour is "Rome Through the Eyes of Its Emperors." For over 500 years, Rome was ruled by emperors. Some emperors enjoyed decades in power; others lasted less than a year. Being an emperor could be a dangerous job! Join us on this tour to learn what the early emperors of Rome saw when they looked out over their vast empire, and what contemporary Roman writers had to say about them. Decide for yourself if you would have liked living in the early Roman empire, whether or not togas and sandals are your style.

As we celebrate the library’s centennial, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.

It builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.

The theme of this week's tour is "Rome Through the Eyes of Its Emperors." For over 500 years, Rome was ruled by emperors. Some emperors enjoyed decades in power; others lasted less than a year. Being an emperor could be a dangerous job! Join us on this tour to learn what the early emperors of Rome saw when they looked out over their vast empire, and what contemporary Roman writers had to say about them. Decide for yourself if you would have liked living in the early Roman empire, whether or not togas and sandals are your style.

Location: William Clements Library
Organized By: William L. Clements Library

As we celebrate the library’s centennial, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.

It builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.
