University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology

The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archeology and Anthropology is a small, but very high quality museum in West Philadelphia.

The Museum has archeology and anthropology collections of great breadth and depth - from Mesoamerica to the Ancient Near East to China.

The Museum's most important collection is arguably the treasures of Ur, which Penn coexcavated with the British Museum. One of the two statuettes "Ram in a Thicket" is here.
