HOLDINGS FROM EUROPE

The Peabody’s European collections are not extensive, but include many materials not generally available in American museums. Among these holdings are: the Duchess of Mecklenburg collection of Iron Age artifacts from Slovenia; a portion of the Gabriel de Mortillet collections from Central Europe; the Dana Estes collection of Iron Age artifacts from northern Italy; artifacts from the excavations at Neolithic Homolka and other sites in Bohemia; extensive Paleolithic collections from France, especially the Abri Pataud; one of the "Venus" figurines from Grimaldi Cave (Italy); Neolithic stone tools from northwestern Europe; pottery collections from Cyprus and Iberia.
