in uppsala, this museum houses relics owned by the university, including an anatomical theatre lighted by the sun (the weird round roof thing in the middle of the building), collections from egypt, old medicinal technlogical insturments, archeological findings from nearby viking graves, and other nerdish odds and ends.



the sun lighted anatomical room


its quite a large display so plan your time properly, we didnt get to see everything before it closed for the day.


first stop, the theatre


very cool. you normally only see or hear of these things in books and movies.



the steps are steep and narrow and high


one fresh specimen today!


digs from the viking burial grounds.


viking masks, they even have a mask for the beard!


it has been predicted along time ago that the 'BN dacing' will be broken. hiak hiak (Malaysian joke)


nice spiral staircase.
