An anthropological museum that blew our minds.

A favorite of many of us, the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford held everything from shrunken heads, seal skin jackets, foot-binding materials, totem poles to an impressive array of weapons. The cluttered atmosphere added to the crazy atmosphere. It was also appreciated that it could have been the museum in the trilogy “His Dark Materials” by Philip Pullman.
