Rabat Archaeological Museum
Rabat Archaeological Museum (Musée Archéologique) is an archaeological museum in Rabat, Morocco. Opened in 1932, it contains the most extensive collection of archaeological artifacts found in Morocco. It contains prehistoric and pre-Islamic collections including an extensive collection of objects uncovered by archaeologists working in Volubilis, Banasa and Thamusida, and were first put on display in 1930-1932.
This includes human remains from the middle palaeolithic period (probably Neanderthals) to the neolithic (4000 BC).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Museums of Morocco Rabat )〕 A further find in 1957 saw the museum expand considerably, after which it became a National Museum and it has housed the National Museum collections since 1986.〔 Pre-Roman and Roman civilisations are well represented in the museum with a number of notable Hellenistic-style bronzes such as the ''Dog of Volubilis'', and the marble 'Ephebe Crowned With Ivy'' and ''Head of a Young Berber''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Musée Archéologique de Rabat ) 〕
