A total of 3,358 people took advantage of the open days organised by the Provincial Archaeological Museum this weekend to enjoy first-hand this fascinating exhibition that traces one of the most remote and prolific cultures in history.
The deputy for Culture and Education, César Augusto Asencio, who has highlighted the excellent reception of this initiative organised on the occasion of the opening of this exhibition, has pointed out that "once again, the Alicante centre has once again opened its facilities free of charge to bring its contents closer and facilitate access to culture for all citizens".
Iran, Cradle of Civilisations' is made up of 195 pieces, some of them exhibited outside Iranian soil for the first time, including a bone flute from 6200 BC, a gold Riton and a manuscript copy of the Koran dating from the 16th century.
