Log Text: Lots of very interesting and important prehistoric artifacts, but it is very hard to find specific items due the the organization of the floors. They are laid out according to a curator's whim of what "theme" the artifact falls unter, rather than chronological. There were carved stone balls in at least two rooms (and I never found the one I was looking for), and hand axes in three different rooms.
