Museum of Arts and Sciences - 352 S. Nova Rd.,
Daytona Beach. The Classical World is a long-term loan exhibition
of 200 plus rare Greek and Roman antiquities from the collection of
the Tampa Museum of Art. Recognized as the finest collection of its
kind in the southeastern United States, The Classical World surveys
the material culture of the Mediterranean area from the Neolithic
period to the Roman Imperial period, roughly 8500 BC to 476 AD.
The exhibition illustrates the types of art works characteristic of
ancient Greece and Rome: painted pottery; sculpture in marble,
bronze, and terra cotta; personal ornaments of bronze and gold;
struck silver and gold coins; and a variety of ancient glass
vessels as well as other items that illuminate interesting aspects
of daily life.
