Penn Museum

We have more in common than we think—our past, present, and future paths are all intertwined. constitution? How can archaeology help to predict climate change? And what radical social changes accelerated by ancient plagues could be replicated in a post-COVID world? Home to over a million extraordinary objects from Africa, Asia, the Americas, and the Mediterranean, since 1887 the Penn Museum has been uncovering our shared humanity. In bridging archaeology, the study of objects made by humans, with anthropology, the science of humanity, we chart a course for finding one’s own place in the arc of human history. We are dedicated to telling powerful stories from around the world. And nowhere else in the Western Hemisphere will you be greeted by a 3,000-year-old, 25,000-pound Egyptian sphinx! The Penn Museum sparks curiosity, wonder, and endless exploration. We invite everyone to join our incredible journey of discovery and dig deeper.
