I had the privilege to witness the opening of the exhibition of “MAYA 2012 Lords OF TIME” on May 5, 2012 at the museum of Archaeology and Anthropology http://www.penn.museum located in the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
150 objects including never before seen artifacts recently excavated from Copan Honduras by Pennsylvania museums archaeologist were put on display. President Porfirio Lobo of Honduras and his wife were present for the opening ceremony, the Honduran and American national anthem was sung before the ribbon cutting. Visitors can explore the history and culture through the ancient artifacts which are on loan only from The Instituto Hondureno de Anthropologia e Historia. This magnificent exhibition will be on display through January 13, 2013.
I know you will enjoy this exhibit as much as I did.
Sigrid
