点评:My wife and I visited the Kalymnos museum on May 6, 2024. We certainly recommend visiting the Archaeological Museum of Kalymnos. While it is not comparable to the fabulous museums in Athens and Herakleon, it has several very important positive features.
In the first place the museum provides thoughtful, thoroughly readable introductory remarks in both English and Greek. Moreover, objects are beautifully presented in an attractive, modern building, museum staff are friendly and very well-informed, and tickets are inexpensive.
Secondly, rather than focusing on the relatively short period of the flowering of classic Greek art and culture, the displays cover a much much longer time horizon, and they identify periods of advancement and decline.
Thirdly, the museum focuses on Kalymnos: in essence, the visitor sees interesting and attractive "finds" and enjoys a relatively concise and coherent sketch of developments in Kalymnos over five millennia.
Finally, the displays and the introductory notes emphasize the links between developments in Kalymnos and developments elsewhere, including improvements in technology, the formation and dissolution of states, and changes in religious beliefs.
翻译:2024 年 5 月 6 日,我和妻子参观了卡利姆诺斯博物馆。我们当然推荐参观卡利姆诺斯考古博物馆。虽然它无法与雅典和赫拉克利翁的神话般的博物馆相提并论,但它有几个非常重要的积极特点。
首先,博物馆以英语和希腊语提供了深思熟虑、通俗易懂的介绍性评论。此外,物品精美地展示在一座迷人的现代建筑中,博物馆工作人员友好且知识渊博,门票便宜。
其次,展览不是关注古典希腊艺术和文化相对较短的繁荣时期,而是涵盖了更长的时间范围,并确定了进步和衰落的时期。
第三,博物馆专注于卡利姆诺斯岛:从本质上讲,游客可以看到有趣且有吸引力的“发现”,并欣赏卡利姆诺斯岛五千年来发展的相对简洁和连贯的概述。
最后,展览和介绍性说明强调了卡利姆诺斯岛的发展与其他地方的发展之间的联系,包括技术的进步、国家的形成和解体以及宗教信仰的变化。
