Cambridge University has announced the reopening of the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, following the completion of a £1.8m redevelopment programme.
Home to one of the UK's most significant collections detailing the history of humanity, the museum was shut for 18 months in order to undergo its "radical transformation".
RHP Architects were responsible the design of the overhaul, which also involved graphic designers Lucy or Robert and exhibition designer At Large.
A new entrance opening onto Downing Street has been created as part of the improvements, in addition to a temporary exhibition space and new archaeology galleries.
Museum curator Mark Elliott said: "Because we have so many [objects], but can show only a few, each one has been specifically chosen for the stories they tell."
