The World that wasn't there

The exhibition, which has already achieved great success in Florence and Rovereto, arrives at one of Italy’s most important museums, the National Archaeological Museum of Naples (MANN). On display are the life, customs, and cultures of Central and South America prior to the arrival of Columbus, presented through two hundred archaeological artifacts and works of art.

With “The world that wasn't there,” Naples has “discovered America.” After Florence and Rovereto, the exhibition—promoted by the Fondazione Giancarlo Ligabue in collaboration with the City of Naples—comes to MANN, one of Italy’s most important institutions for archaeological and natural history research, where the two hundred objects from the Ligabue Collection are on display.
