Description: This is a terrific museum, with two main collections. The first, the Clark Gallery, has an great collection of archeological material, from Africa to America and everything in between. The Maudslay Gallery, upstairs, has the anthropology stuff, including some really interesting things from the Pacific Islands. I have to say I preferred the later - I know I'm a philistine, but archeological things all just look like bits of pot to me!
The opening hours here are a bit short - 2pm to 4:30pm, excl. Sunday and Monday.
