Kenya and Tanzania -- Oct 2012 -- Part II of III

Interior of the museum.

The sloped exhibit is a replica (made from a casting) of a set of humanoid tracks made in a layer of volcanic ash (which apparenlty later hardened into a rocklike material. The actual prints are perhaps 40 miles away (and have now been re-covered by protective layers of soil and and rock (and perhaps some materials to reduce rainwater infiltration and damage from tree roots).

The musum "covers" items found in the general area, not just from down in this particular gorge.
