Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology

Where research reveals the story

 

 

"Archaeology is not only a reconstruction of the past but also its construction."

Ian Hodder

Archaeologists use elements of the past to better understand the present. At the Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology, we share some of the research, belongings, and experiences that help us better understand our worlds and ourselves.

We are an active centre for teaching and scholarship, supporting faculty and student research through our collections, exhibits, and archives. We invite everyone to engage with new discoveries and perspectives. Whether you are a first-time visitor or a seasoned researcher, MAE offers a space where curiosity, evidence, and inquiry come together.
