Most recent installation of the antiquities collection, including many pieces donated by Clio Ancient Art & Antiquities' "Chris M. Maupin Irrevocable Trust for Ancient Art". This is the 3rd re-installation of the relatively new collection and includes many pieces that Clio Ancient Art and the Trust worked with the Museum on acquiring from other private collectors. Of course, only a fraction of the collection, now numbering over 200 objects, is on display at any one time; perhaps 45 objects. Of the 40 or so pieces gifted by the Trust, about 15 are currently on display.
