Archaeology

The gallery describes the story of human evolution and cultural development in Zambia from Stone Age to Iron Age. Exhibits show shifts in prehistoric technology and its application in food production and preparation. Highlights include Broken Hill Man skeletal and associated material, Stone Age tools and way of life, cave art, Iron Age tools, pottery, copper work, early trade and agriculture. The material evidence comes from prehistoric sites around Zambia, for example, Broken Hill (Kabwe) Mine in Kabwe, Nachikufu Caves in Mpika, Ing’ombe Ilede in Siavonga and Sibusenga in Kazungula.

Movie Nights

This movie night idea is just about having fun nights watching movies but cultivating a culture in people to appreciate and love the history of their own nation that they now get to build. When people care more about these things is when the museum can thrive more.

VR experience

While textbooks can provide all of the information, actually seeing an artefact in the flesh whether it’s a piece of ancient jewellery, dinosaur skeleton or medieval suit of armour evokes the emotional response that makes museums so popular with the public.
