Anthropological Museum

The Anthropological Museum is one of the most popular museums in Vancouver, located on the campus of the University of British Columbia. The collection of the museum presents many unique anthropological finds and archaeological rarities that attract a lot of visitors.

The Anthropological Museum was founded in 1947 and was originally located in the basement of the university library.
