Harvard Museum of the Ancient Near East

Tucked away among the other Harvard museums is this little gem! It's free to enter and has three floors of exhibits on different areas. The ground floor starts with the Mediterranean, the next floor is predominantly Egyptian, and the top floor is Mesopotamia. The staff were all really friendly and happy to answer any questions! The museum is quite small and goes well together with a visit to the Peabody in terms of its collection (it felt a little like an annexe to me). While small, it has some really interesting items ranging from glass slides from an old expedition to receipts for artefact purchases! The room design complements the displays really well too- the Mesopotamian room in particular is very beautiful. There are restrooms and a tiny gift shop (cash/check only!).
