Honoring the Sacred Spirit from Ancient to Modern at the Carlos Museum
|
When people think of anthropological museums, they might recall the famous British Museum in London, the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, the Smithsonian in WDC, or New York City’s American Museum of Natural History. Very few people would consider Atlanta, Georgia home to a place that cradles any of the treasures of ancient civilizations. But it is. Emory University’s Michael C. Carlos Museum is one of the country’s top small anthropological museums. Its area of focus has captivated local Pagans and Heathens for years. Founded in 1919, the Carlos Museum has been growing its collection of art and cultural artifacts for nearly a century.
