The popular imagination often wholly portrays the eastern Mediterranean as politically fractured and war-laden. It is a representation that Penn Museum counters in its new gallery, “Crossroads of Culture,” which highlights the social, commercial, and political innovations that originated from the region.
“Culture of Crossroads,” which opens today, is the only gallery in North America that contextualizes excavations within the region as a colonial practice. A digital screen in the gallery shows a map of Museums often overlook the contributions of local community members that lead to an excavation’s success and, as a result, distort the public memory of a region by heralding archeologists as explorers in the unknown. Tucked in a corner of the gallery are three manila folders that provide insight into the contributions of community members. These are labeled: Beth Shean, Kourion, and Gibeon — the names of three major excavations led by Penn Museum throughout the eastern Mediterranean.
