The managing curators of the British Museum have been accused of being ‘woke’ and virtue signaling to the public after banning the word ‘mummy.’ The museum claims they “don’t want to offend dead Egyptians.” You might think it would be impossible to hurt the feelings and trigger the social sensitivities of a 3,000-year-old corpse. Still, […]
In recent years, the museums of our macronational neighbors have been increasingly criticized for giving way to politicized exhibitions that convey knowledge.

Collecting things is a common human phenomenon, confirmed in studies showing that 70 percent of children and 30 percent of adults have a collection. From an evolutionary biology perspective, it is conceivable that it has been a decisive advantage for humans to save on life necessities such as food and tools to maximize the chances […]
