John Lubbock Collection of World Culture and Archaeology

This collection of artefacts was made at a time when Charles Darwin had just published his theories about evolution and scientists were trying to understand the world around them. It is also a product of empire and can be used to explore the impact of Victorian Britain on communities around the world, with legacies into the present.

This starter History Explorer map has been developed by a group of volunteers working with the collection during the Covid-19 pandemic. We are continuing to develop this resource, and associated learning activities.


National Holocaust Centre and Museum

Developed in partnership with the National Holocaust Centre and Museum. An extraordinary set of powerful object-based stories for learners to explore and reflect upon. Each object and story linked to an aspect of Holocaust history, many of them donated by survivors. We must never forget.
