点评:See artifacts from an excavation of the ancient Mayan city of Tikal in Guatemala, a limestone rock with intricate Mayan carvings that stands 10 feet tall, a 13-ton granite Sphinx of Rameses 11 that dates to 1200 BC, Royal Tombs of UR and clay tablets inscribed in Sumerian and Akkadian ranging from 2900 to 500 BC. They are all on display at Penn Museum, or the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, which houses over 1.3 million artifacts and one of the most comprehensive collections of Middle and Near-Eastern art in the world. Located at 3260 South Street in Philadelphia, on Penn's campus in the University City neighborhood, at the intersection of 33rd and South streets, it features three floors with 11 permanent galleries -- Africa, Asia, Egypt, Sphinx, Middle East, Eastern Mediterranean, Etruscan, Greece, Rome, Native American Voices and Mexico/Central America. Founded in 1887, the museum is known or its archaeological and anthropological research and presentation, having conducted more than 300 expeditions around the world. It is housed on one of the landmarks on the Penn campus with its dramatic rotunda, multiple courtyards, gardens, fountain, reflecting pool, glass mosaics, iron gates and stone statuary. Perhaps most importantly is the museum's collection of African ethnographic and archaeological objects, one of the largest in the country, including the Benin Bronzes, its collection of Egyptian artifacts and arguably its most important collection the Royal Tombs of Ur, showcasing the wealth of the city-state in ancient Sumer in Iraq that includes crowns, musical instruments, a Bull-headed lyre and other figures inlaid with gold and precious stones.
