The Lost World of Old Europe: the Danube Valley, 5000-3500BC, The Ashmolean Museum

Oxford’s Ashmolean Museum has an exceptional exhibition on at the moment. For one, it’s a stunning display, of things you are unlikely to have seen before, showing prehistoric items from a Europe we know little about: an ‘Old Europe’ of Neolithic farmers who settled and prospered in the fertile plains and valleys of the Danube River in southeast Europe between 7000 and 5,500 years ago.
