Really small, but they do their best to make amazing, beautiful, and informative exhibits. They also host events all the time

This was a super cool museum! It’s free and it was a nice walk through experience. It’s a small room but it has cool artifacts and explanation from a lot of different cultures. It was much worth going!!!!

Had a wonderful tour of this museum today with the kids. It has some very interesting displays very well put together. They also had some fun activities for the kids to get them more involved. 100% recommend a visit here!

Questions & Answers

Where can I get an ancient spearhead carbon dated?

Joyce Thompson | Nov 12, 2020

Unfortunately, carbon dating can only be done for organic items such as wood or charcoal. Spearheads made of stone are usually dated according to their shape and style. There are several good diagrams online that show various shapes and styles of stone tools that can be used to stylistically date them. If the spearhead is metal, it can also be stylistically dated, but not carbon dated. Hope this helps.

is there a Hmong organization or group in Provo?

Check at the Wilkinson Center for who to contact in the Provo community for a Hmong organization.
