Of earthly fashion and heavenly robes: Ancient clothing between heaven and earth

Themed tours for International Museum Day
Using various objects, we can find out what conclusions we can draw about the processing of animal and plant fibers from Roman to early-Halamannic times. These finds also shed light on the fashion and clothing habits of the population at the time.

With regard to the world of the gods, the topic is equally fruitful: which items of clothing do the various deities wear in their respective depictions and what did they convey to the ancient observer?
Last but not least, spinning and weaving also played a role in mythology time and again - how did the story of the contest between Minerva and Arachne go again?

Themed tours with museum director Enrico De Gennaro M.A.
