A wonderful collection of artefacts, all beautifully displayed
Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology的点评
点评：I really enjoyed my visit to the Museum of Archeology and Anthropology (MAA). It is a university museum and although only relatively small by museum standards, it still holds many incredibly important artefacts, works of art, documents and photographs representative of humanity’s history.
I found it all very thought provoking. There are some really amazing exhibits and although I initially felt a little uncomfortable how some of the items on display had been obtained and removed from their indigenous homes, I took the trouble to educate myself further on the museum and its ethics in relation to such items.
This research taught me that MAA is actually one of the first UK museums to return artefacts to a nation of origin (Uganda 1961) and since this time has been committed to cultural exchange and collaborative scholarship, involving local and indigenous people associated with the collections.
The museum is set over three floors. The ground floor tells all the local history and displays artefacts discovered in the local area. The following two floors are dedicated to artefacts obtained from other parts of the world, from their indigenous communities.
I really enjoyed my visit. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The museum can be easily enjoyed in a relatively short amount of time.
It has some wonderful exhibits, including some of the Benin bronzes, which are now on loan to the museum. There is also a wonderful totem pole that just fits into its home, the carving of which is much more detailed at the bottom than at the top (the master craftsmen working at the bottom and their apprentices working at the top). There is also part of the stone screen from Winchester Cathedral, and countless other wonderful curiosities and pieces of history.
In my opinion, a museum certainly worthy of a visit and one which is free to enter, requesting only a donation.

翻译：我非常喜欢参观考古与人类学博物馆 (MAA)。这是一座大学博物馆，虽然按博物馆标准来说规模相对较小，但仍然收藏着许多非常重要的文物、艺术品、文件和代表人类历史的照片。
我发现这一切都非常发人深省。有一些非常令人惊叹的展品，虽然我最初对一些展品是如何从其原住民家园获得并移走感到有点不舒服，但我还是不辞辛劳进一步了解了博物馆及其与这些物品相关的道德规范。
这项研究让我知道，MAA 实际上是英国首批将文物归还原产国（乌干达 1961 年）的博物馆之一，从那时起，它一直致力于文化交流和合作研究，让与收藏品相关的当地和土著人民参与其中。
博物馆分为三层。一楼讲述了所有当地历史，并展示了在当地发现的文物。接下来的两层专门用于展示从世界其他地方的土著社区获得的文物。
我真的很享受这次参观。工作人员友好热情。博物馆可以在相对较短的时间内轻松游览。
它有一些精彩的展品，包括一些贝宁青铜器，现在借给了博物馆。还有一个精美的图腾柱，刚好适合它的位置，底部的雕刻比顶部更细致（工匠大师在底部工作，他们的学徒在顶部工作）。还有温彻斯特大教堂的石屏风的一部分，以及无数其他奇妙的珍品和历史片段。
在我看来，这个博物馆绝对值得一游，而且免费进入，只需要捐款。
