People have been collecting things for thousands of years.Sir Hans Sloan was a great collector,and when he died in the eighteenth century,his collections were put together in the British Museum.
It is from special collections in museums that people can learn about their own countryside,about other areas of the country and other countries of the world.
If it was not for some people’s love of exploring and collecting,there would be no museums.We would not be able to learn about life in other countries.Many of the collections are of ancient things.Not everyone can afford the time or money to explore and collect for themselves.
