The Indus Colony in Mesopotamia – Part 1

(Mesopotamia in 2300 B.C.E) After World War 1, the British Museum and the Penn Museum decided to excavate in Iraq. Since Iraq was under the British mandate, the sites were easily accessible; the only issue was to find the best place to dig. The appr...

Abeno review - piping hot Japanese okonomiyaki prepared on your table's hotplate in London

We were at the British Museum's Moctezuma : Ruler of Aztec and popped by Abeno along Museum Street for a light snack after the exhibition. More precisely, we were gunning for the okonomiyaki, which is a Japanese rosti with chopped cabbage instead of potato strips. Each table has got a metal hotplate installed and that alone, when heated up, is a welcome respite from the chilling wind blowing

Linklog: James Wood on Paul Auster, Jason Bourne on life support, and more

"At the end of the story, the hints that have been scattered like mouse droppings lead us to the postmodern hole in the book where the rodent got in": James Wood, as you might have guessed, is really not terribly keen on Paul Auster . • How Jason Bourne survived his author, only to be horribly tortured . • On books as an investment (broadly: you never can tell ). • A forensic...

Round Barrows

Aldbourne Four Barrows was used as a cemetery from 2500 to 1500BC, but apparently the bones have been moved to the British Museum, so the round barrows are not too spooky to stand on. Canon G11 1/30th at f2.8 in a howling wind.

Outings and celebrations . . .

It's been a very 'social' weekend. Number one son and I went to the Monteczuma Exhibition at The British Museum on Friday evening. I have to admit almost total ignorance of Monteczuma before the outing. Like many people, I recognised the name (at least I'd heard of 'Montezuma' at any rate!) and knew he was something to do with the Aztecs. We tended to concentrate on European history at school so the...

Saturday Read: Loot, by Sharon Waxman

The subheading of Loot, by Sharon Waxman, is "The battle over the stolen treasures of the ancient world," which gives you a pretty good idea of the content. For any of you who have visited big museums such as the Met in New York or The British Museum, you know that the majority of their historical artifacts don't come from their homeland, but rather, fascinating and exotic places like Greece,...

Staffordshire Hoard on temporary display

Above: I went to see some of the items from the Staffordshire Hoard on temporary display at the British Museum. Although I picked a time (just before closing) when the museum is usually fairly empty it was still difficult to get near them. In particular there was a party of elderly French people who leaned over the cabinets with no sign of moving, as if they were mesmerised by the gold. Above: I think...

Repatriation: Finders Keepers?

New York Times (John Tierney) I rather like the picture of the Egyptian statue with suitcases. Zahi Hawass regards the Rosetta Stone, like so much else, as stolen property languishing in exile. “We own that stone,” he told Al Jazeera, speaking as the secretary general of Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities. The British Museum does not agree — at least not yet. But never underestimate...
