The Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology has one of the most important collections of its kind in the UK. Originally founded in 1884, it has been in its present location on Downing Street since 1913. MAA’s collections span nearly two million years of human history, on all six inhabited continents. Our oldest object is a 1.8 million year old stone tool from Olduvai Gorge, whilst the newest are made by contemporary artists. The anthropology and photographic collections are enhanced by collaboration with indigenous communities.
