Frommer's Review
The Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology boasts the Hall of the North American Indian, where 500 artifacts representing 10 cultures are on display. Photographs, textiles, pottery, and art and crafts of all ages and descriptions fill the galleries, spanning six continents and countless years.
One of the university's most popular attractions, this complex is also a world-famous academic resource; interdisciplinary programs and exhibitions tie in elements of all the associated fields. Check ahead for special events, including family programs and lectures by world-famous scientists, during your visit.
Shares admission with the Harvard Museum of Natural History.
