Ancient artefacts from Gaza – amphorae, statues, mosaics, funerary steles and more – tell the story of 5,000 years of a civilisation, in a Paris exhibition that seeks to preserve a heritage on the brink of erasure.
Assembled in just four and a half months, the exhibition, entitled "Treasures Rescued from Gaza – 5,000 Years of History", at the Institut du Monde Arabe honours Gaza’s rich past and looks to protect what's left of a cultural legacy that has endured empires, invasions and now war.
