The Search for the Missing Tomb An educational, archeological enterprise involving maps, signs, and symbols which will lead young adventurers on an imaginary quest over oceans, seas, and rivers to an exotic land. Through misleading false starts and mysterious secret passages, treasure hunters must locate and interpret strange messages and clues. Once in the tomb, the complex customs and beliefs of an ancient civilization will be revealed, which express mankind's enduring need to understand the influence and the uncertainties of the natural environment. The exhibition will reinforce geography skills such as global orientation, map reading, distance measuring and direction finding. It addresses the language, art, beliefs and historical relevance of a culture so ancient yet so enduring.
