Ethiopia Musings: 6) Lucy at the National Museum
July 18, 2015
In the center of Addis Ababa is the Ethiopian National Museum. Although it has been around for decades (1930’s), it was in the mid-1970s that the government supported the idea of having a National Museum that would exhibit the various objects that had been discovered at the archeological and anthropologic excavation sites around the country. These include the famous remains of “Lucy”.
