Ure Museum of Greek Archaeology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Ure Museum of Greek Archaeology forms part of the Department of Classics at the University of Reading and is on the university's Whiteknights Campus in the town of Reading, England.

The museum houses a collection of material from the Greek and other civilisations of the Mediterranean, most notably Greek and Etruscan ceramics and terracottas. Other exhibits include prehistoric pottery, metal and stone artifacts of Greek and Roman dates, and a collection of Egyptian antiquities, ranging from the Pre-dynastic to the Roman period.

The museum is open, on weekdays between 9am and 4.30pm, to the public, schools, and researchers.
