“Through the written word we can connect with some of those who went before us”
[Cowley & Williamson 2007, p. 3]
Interestingly, when exploring the National Gallery of Victoria, I came across two Ancient Iraq items, a clay tablet and clay brick which I photographed and scanned, including their descriptions. It is amazing to view something that is so old, that tells a story from the past gone by and subsequently, becomes believable and is now today’s library materials. Following my visit, I searched the National Gallery of Victoria’s website and located these items. Luckily I had taken photographs of the items as these two items on the gallery’s site are not available to view.

Doing well Kaye. In your remaining posts try to collate your resources into the beginning of a reference list (I hope you are also compiling sound content for the report. The images are good and I'd suggest that you create a blogroll of your fellow students blogs too. It might help you to visit them to see the diversity of styles and approaches.
