The Ashmolean Museum is home to a rich collection of artifacts covering four thousand years of Jewish history, drawn from countries as diverse as ancient Iraq, medieval England and modern Germany. Individually and collectively these unique and important objects provide a fascinating account of the evolving history of the Jewish people and their journey through time and space.0Detailed text explains the historical background and usage of the selected objects, including the 'Sumerian King List'prism, (pictured featuring) text evoking the biblical story of the Flood, then relating them to their wider Jewish context. Each object will tell a story about a different aspect of Jewish life, and together they will weave into a meta-narrative of the Jewish journey from antiquity tot the present day.
