Afghanistan knew and still know very little.
Currently there are daily reports that shock us on this endless war that tearing apart the country, war always present in the country, even going with the memory long ago. When I was in Turkmenistan
someone in my group, indicating the surrounding told me: "That's right there and left Afghanistan to Iran" or vice versa. Harmless and majestic mountains that rise horizon.
Going even further with the memory recall of green silk, draped in a burka on a grand piano in the house of an architect who had often worked in that country but always connected with the Institute of Archaeology and an Afghan student who attended the Institute. His name
Mustamandi Bay Trail and tried desperately to graduate from our Faculty, but there were major difficulties with the greek and latin at the time, the foundations needed to attend and understand the sources that quenches those who had a classical education.
But he graduated and spliced \u200b\u200ba colleague of his studies. I still remember the tall, elegant, a little dark-skinned and could cook "the coq au vin" (prepared him for his "beautiful"). They left for his country, dug, attended the court of the king who gave their two Afghan Levier, then she returned with a trick in Italy with the greyhounds and filled with balls, sure of her husband and maybe even more.
Who can forget the agony of the Buddhas of Bamian, which crumbled in a cloud of dust harmful?
But now there is an exhibition that should absolutely go and admire.
Let the fires, interropete long phone calls, cancel appointments, drop the ladle, remove the curlers travel: there are the Ori Afghanistan that await
Luckily they extended the show till the end of November and c 'is on Tuesday to consult with schedules in which the visit is free. But for old
Carampane like me there is a reduction in the cost of the ticket. But
8 (eight) poor euros should not stop anyone. It 's beautiful, well-structured, with incredible objects in gold, of course, but also ivories, Roman-inspired glasses and I really appreciated for their museum system, supported by a thin shirt, plexiglass and other prepared a bulletin board located in a room only for them. But what I really appreciated were the enlarged photographs of some of the outfits funarari objects and their location on the garments of the dead.
And then if you are stingy, if not afraid of the weight and if it does not rain, as has happened to me, is the beautiful catalog. The first time I went there I had an attack of tirchiaggine did not want to spend 40 €, the second purchase and I was well-intentioned, it was raining, the catalog was heavy and I had to drag all day during my forays into Via Roma.
And I gave up !!!!! About
I could not put any photos. I'm a dog!
duty Appendix: any show you go to see, with the same ticket you can also visit the Archaeological Museum. On display are so admirable an incredible amount of archaeological finds.
It's really worth!
