Collection | Artifact | Picture | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Stone Age |
Stone Axe | Unfortunately we still don't know who the first person to make an axe out of a rock was.
| |
Arrowhead | Leaf-shaped arrows, spiked arrows, rhomboid arrows, triangular arrows, stem-like arrows... you won't find that kind of variety of arrows in the modern world. | ||
Fishing Hook | Want to catch a bigger Ichtyosauer? Then get yourself a bigger hook! | ||
Mortar and Pestle | Even if you live in a cave, your kitchen absolutely needs a mortar and pestle! | ||
Stone Statue | Even back then farmers still wore hat | ||
Wind Instruments |
Shepherd's | They say that cows that graze to music produce more milk.
| |
Pan Flute | The ancients incas might have been the only people who ever knew how to play this instrument well. | ||
Ocarina | This item might look a little preposterous at first glance, but it has an amazingly beautiful sound. | ||
Tuba | The tuba's bass blare can't be confused with anything else, except the horn on a steamer. | ||
Saxophone | Learning to play the saxophone is no joke, but you've got a better chance nowadays thanks to the internet and all. | ||
Crystals |
Blue Lotus | This flower's beauty will never fade.
| |
Flame Crystal | According to one legend, this crystal got its color from a dragon's fiery breath. | ||
Emerald Crystal | They say that farmers who touched this crystal could be cured of a number of illnesses. | ||
Moon Crystal | No, this mineral didn't fall to earth from the moon. Try looking at it by moonlight, and youll figure it out. | ||
Rainbow Crystal | Believe it or not, you can see rainbows in caves, too | ||
Pottery Artifacts |
Clay Mug | They say a clay mug was considered the best holiday gift as far back as ancient times.
| |
Ceramic Elephant | I wouldn't recommend getting an elephant as a pet. Stick to a little figurine like this one. | ||
Antique Pitcher | Back in the day a pitcher like this one filled with milk would be waiting for you when you returned from an exhausting day working in the fields. | ||
Vase Shard | The people who lived here in ancient times knew how to combine practicality with art. That's why these shards are still considered valuable. | ||
Clay Pipe | Before the invention of the television, the gentlemen of our town used to while away their evenings by the fire with a newspaper and a pipe. | ||
Shoes |
Birchbark Sandals | Before there were shoe stores, people used to go to the woods for shoes.
| |
Medieval Shoes | With shoes like these ladies didn't have to worry about getting their feet wet. | ||
Leather Shoes | In the middle ages the lenght of the tips of thes shoes was regulated by law. | ||
Fur Slippers | Fur slippers will always keep you from catching a cold. | ||
First Sneakers | It would be hard to imagine modern fashion without sneakers. | ||
Masks |
Ancient Mask | In the ancient theater all you needed to put on a play was one actor and a handful of masks.
| |
Carnival Mask | Wearing a mask like this to a party will hardly make you incognito, but it will almost definitely intrigue your guests. | ||
Bat Mask | Do you want to fly over the town under cover of night, bet the protector of Township , and have a huge fanclub? Well, you can't do it without this mask. | ||
Venetian Mask | With a Venetian Mask on you can become whoever you want and leave the boundaries of real life. | ||
African Mask | They won't let you into an African tribal party without a mask like this. | ||
History of Science |
Telescope | The first telescope looked a lot like a spyglass. The difference was, that the spyglass was used to look at land and the telescope was used to look at the moon.
| |
Globe | If you even doubt that the earth is round, just look at a globe. | ||
Abacus | When people started running out of fingers to count on, they invented the abacus, | ||
Scale | As it turns out, the invention of the scale coincided with of the weight-loss diet. | ||
Satellite | It turns out that more than just meteorites have fallen on our town. | ||
The Farm of Yore |
Cart Wheel | The amount of time and effort saved by this invention cannot be overstated.
| |
Hoe | There was a time when it would have been hard to picture a farmeer without a hoe. | ||
Old Scissors | In the heart of every farmer is a hairdresser trying to get out. | ||
Thresher | No, this isn't a weapon. It's an old-fashioned tool for threshing grain. | ||
Sickle | The inventor of the sickle was probably inspired by the sight of the crescent moon. | ||
Stringed Instruments |
Lyre | In antiquity the lyre was seen as a kind of portable harp.
| |
Lute | It takes longer to tune a lute than to play a guitar. | ||
Violin | The debate about who invented this legendary instrument and when they did it rages to this day. | ||
Balalaika | They say that anyone who hears a balalaika immediately starts doing a russian squatting dance. | ||
Guitar | This instrument is always the most popular guest at bonfire parties. | ||
Seashells |
Large Shell | They say that if you put a shell like this to your ear you can hear the sound of the ancient sea.
| |
Pearl Shell | The pearl shell will occupy a worthy place among the collections of our town's celebrated jewellers. | ||
Spiny Shell | Be careful when swimming in the sea - stepping on one of these shells is not a pleasant sensation. | ||
Beaded Shell | Even sea creatures can have an artistic temperament. | ||
Conch Shell | The shape of the Waffle cones we use for ice cream was probably borrowed from ancient mollusks. | ||
Clocks |
Sun Dial | A clock like this is a nice thing to have, but it makes it easy to lose track of time at night.
| |
Hourglass | The nice thing about an hourglass is that you don't have to wind it. | ||
Desk Clock | Clocks like these still decorate farm houses to this day. | ||
