Museum of Anthropology, Mexico City





















The Museo Nacional de Anthropogia is the largest in south america and houses some of the most significant artifacts in the history of the country.
Some date back 2500 years and their quality is outstanding. Lots of fertility symbols, masks, toys and religious skulls created to speak to the dead. We had a really interesting afternoon exploring the ancient past and also looking at the history of the modern indigenous cultures who still live on and gather subsistence from the land.
