Mesopotamia
exhibit at the USU museum of anthropology
January 16, 2008 | The Saturday
activity series at Utah State University's Museum of
Anthropology continues this weekend, with sessions that
teach guests about Mesopotamian creation stories and
writing.
USU students and members of the public
are invited to drop in any time during the museum's
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday hours. Adults and children
will be able to learn about the area that has been called
the "cradle of civilization" in the area of
modern Iraq. This culture forms the roots of many modern
religions and writing styles.

on the USU campus in the south turret of the historic
Old Main building, room 252. Free parking is available
in the adjacent lot, south of the building. For more
