SUMMARY:Augmented Reality Maya Chocolate Plate
DESCRIPTION:Drop-in Activity \nFor International Archaeology Day\, “shrink” yourself down to “walk” into an ancient Maya vessel using augmented reality! Maya women were often essential for uniting kingdoms. When a marriage was arranged between Maya royal families\, kings would exchange gifts like this ceramic three-legged plate for serving chocolate. Use the museum’s iPad as a “magic window” to discover fine details on one such plate that cannot be seen on the actual artifact. A gallery facilitator will guide you through the experience and will share more about the Maya. \nRegular museum admission rates apply. \nPhoto © Tony Rinaldo
