Ancient Collection

The museum’s growing collection of art works from the ancient world now includes over 100 objects, including Egyptian funerary objects, statuettes of Egyptian gods, Etruscan bucchero pottery, Greek black figure pottery, and Roman glass.

Significant donations from Richard C. Brockway ’57, and James and Aneta McIntyre helped to establish the museum’s Ancient Collection. A selection of objects from this collection is on permanent view in the museum’s Mark and Janeth Sponenburgh Gallery.
