Exploring the world of antiquities dealing, collecting, heritage issues and a bit of archaeological travel
Clio Ancient Art Facilitates Major Gifts of Antiquities to Three Universities and Colleges
As 2016 nears it’s end, we are proud to share with you that Clio Ancient Art facilitated gifts of ancient pottery oil lamps and vessels from one of our clients to 3 colleges and universities:
* University of Missouri at Kansas City Department of Classical Studies
* University of North Carolina at Wilmington Department of Art and Art History
* Cape Fear Community College Humanities and Fine Arts Department.
In each case the gift consisted of 100 pottery lamps and vessels, mainly from the Eastern Mediterranean, ranging in date from the Late Hellenistic through Roman, Byzantine and early Islamic periods. All were from a private collection assembled in the Middle East in the mid-1960s.
We are proud and pleased that these gifts will help educate and inspire future generations of students in art, art history, archaeology and classical studies. #CFCC#UNCW#UMKC#Clio#Antiquities#ancient
