The Gold Museum

I will talk about the gold museum, this museum is about gold. You can find here different types of gold from the pre-history. It is located in “calle 16 con carrera 6ª en el Parque de Santander”, The entrance cost for adults $3,000 pesos and for kids that are under 12 years it is free. And is you want to listen about the museum you can have a audio- guide that cost $6,00 0pesos.

There are a lot of beautiful things that you can find:

This masks that are here they do it with there face to created something to protec them self's.

oh!
And look at this there were stone or hammer- hardened tumbaga chisels were used for marking out the object and cutting it to its final shape.

For them the coca was used by chieftains and shamans to help them to think and to renew and transmit sacred knowledge, because of the effect it had in activating the powers of concentration, memory and speech. And they put that in this bottle

There tomb that was excavated in Nahuange bay in 1922. Contained objects similar to these and enabled the period and style of the gold work to be identified.

there was a room were the lights were off and when you enter and in starts to put on some lights get on and you can see some figures and in the floor therer were some special things that were like handless and things about what they put on in the pre- history.

 there was something like a human that have all about want they use in the face, in there, hands, mouth, hair, nose, and they ears.

Those pictures you just saw is the Gold Museum's all done in gold as the name suggests but most of all this is a long time that's why some of the gold are with something green becuase they are from the pre-history ,and the are so old an important for the contry because this museum is important for the persons that come here and now something about Bogota or Colombia.
