I SAW THIS EXHIBIT SEVERAL YEARS AGO IN TEXAS IT WAS THE FIRST TOUR THE LARGE MASKS AND OTHER ITEMS FROM THE FIND HAD MADE SINCE THEY WERE DISCOVERED. THE MASKS ARE VERY LARGE TOO BIG AND HEAVY FOR ONE MAN TO LIFT THERE WERE ALSO SOME VERY LARGE CEREMONIAL BRONZE VESSELS AND ONE LARGE BRONZE STATUE OF A FULL FIGURE WITH A FACE SIMULAR TO THE MASKS. THE EXHIBIT WAS THE BEST I HAVE SEEN FEATURING BRONZE ITEMS AND HAD QUITE A FEW OTHER TYPES OF ARTEFACTS AS WELL. AMAZING THAT YOU COULD TAKE SUCH GOOD PICTURES WITH A CELL PHONE. THANKS FOR SHAREING.
