<br>
the Landesmuseum für Vorgeschichte in Halle (famous for the Nebra
Sky disc;
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.lda-2Dlsa.de_en_state-5Fmuseum-5Fof-5Fprehistory_permanent-5Fexhibition_&d=DwMD-g&c=cjytLXgP8ixuoHflwc-poQ&r=LpYc_Z_iN1KRw0hheb3x6-8MJUMu482qfHowpGYJqwc&m=96btYn93-UcnXarD2IHMQW2DW1R7qjrJc696CWBJH9o&s=Nd8o23VdsooJcH6kljQWqceWi8j75HT94znmX6OPQlc&e=">http://www.lda-lsa.de/en/state_museum_of_prehistory/permanent_exhibition/</a>)
added a very impressive time-line of the early industrial
revolution of stone tools by showing their evolution and running
them continuously through two rooms (including a break in the wall
between those two rooms). Some were registered, some not. <br>
<br>
They really have a cool & clever exhibition concept; besides
the stone tool-revolution, in the atrium a massive attack of
arrows (hanging in the atrium) points to visitors ascending the
stairs.<br>
<br>
Maybe your objects would be suited for a similar purpose? <br>

<p class="MsoNormal">The Section of Anthropology, Carnegie
Museum of Natural History, is in the last 3 months of a 3-year
NEH grant to rehouse its 1.5 million archaeological specimens.
As we get down to the last few boxes to go into our wonderful
new cabinets, we’ve run into the problem of what should be
done with artifacts having no data. Most of them are ground
stone tools, and most come from early 20<sup>th</sup> century
donations. Ethically, we can’t just rebury them, and we can’t
sell them. Past curators didn’t want to deal with them, but
now we have to. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’ve already got educational loan kits
using no-data material, and the system will handle maybe one
or two more kits. That’s maybe 40 items off the list. Have
other institutions come up with solutions to the problem? Any
suggestions would be appreciated. [We’ve already rejected
paving our driveways or building patios.]
