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.
