WFU Creates Digital Artifact Database

Wake Forest University's Museum of Anthropology recently unveiled an online database of its entire collection, consisting of over 26,000 artifacts. You can search the collection by country to find objects from a particular region or culture. The database also allows users to search for a specific type of artifact across cultures. The project was made possible by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and another recently awarded IMLS grant will allow the museum to expand the database to include archival records, such as photographs and maps.

The Museum's featured fall exhibit is "Dias de lost Muertos (Days of the Dead)" which includes a traditional Mexican ofrenda (altar) and other objects related to this unique celebration. Permanent exhibits discuss such diverse people and places as Papua New Guinea, Japan, and North Carolina Native Americans.

It's definitely a must to have a diet after gallbladder removal, to help reduce the risks of pain and more gallstones, to help you keep to a diet you must sort out a gallbladder diet plan, or otherwise known as a gallstones diet, doing this can reduce the risk of developing gallstones, or if you already have them, then reduce the pain.
