PRE-COLUMBIAN ARTIFACTS
Now through June 30, 2015
The term "Pre-Columbian" has expanded to include the period before before indigenous cultures came under the control and influence of Europe, sometimes decades and even centuries after Columbus' arrival in 1492. These objects provide a glimpse into the daily life of Pre-Columbian peoples, including the Chavín, Nazca, Moche, Tairona, Chimú, Taíno, and Inca. This exhibition is a project of Advanced Museum Studies students: Susan Wigodner '10, Alex Doersam '12 and Idelis Matias '12.
