This is the courtyard of a monastery that’s now a museum
Apparently about 1/3 of our audience actually likes museum pictures.
So look at these 10,000 year old seeds
And this ancient carving of a half-cyborg. The sign says something about the dual elements of life and death but we know the truth
Something about this gold broach looks like it should be a video game character
This one tells about the order of the Universe, and it puts sports at the top, so we disagree.
This is a really pretty necklace
This skull is encased in turquoise
These are ancient tweezers. You twist a hair into the spiral until it gets stuck.
These are alebrijes
Which inspired the beasts in the movie Coco
But I think the ones in the movie were like this more elaborate one
Here’s another look at the courtyard.
And a weird old mural
This alligator is made of corn, if you prefer modern art
You’re right, it’s definitely a cyborg.
Those gold artifacts are very interesting, but it’s kind of depressing to think that many more were melted into bricks so they could be stacked in the basement of some central bank.
The alebrijes are neat.
Something feels weird about that courtyard. Maybe it’s that there’s no setback between the walls and the stone floor of the courtyard.
Some of it was melted down to guild the walls of the church associated with the monastery.
