The British Museum
Located in the Bloomsbury area of London, the British Museum is the location of a national collection of science and art treasures. It might be called The British Museum, but its exhibits represent the cultural history of much of the world. With artifacts from dozens of ancient and modern countries, exhibits include the Rosetta Stone, Aztec pottery, Phoenician clay masks, Roman coffins and mummy cases, medieval European coins, the Elgin marbles, Leonardo da Vinci's notebook, and jewelry from around the world and through the ages.
