The exhibition explores the global story of mankind through 100 objects (sets) from different regions of the world in the collection of the British Museum. Dating from 2 million years ago to the present, the stories behind the objects reveal how human beings in various areas and cultures faced the same problems and shared similar aspirations in aspects of power, belief, art, trading and technology. Through the process of connection, conflict and integration of different cultures, visitors will gain new inspiration about the world history.
