Take a step back in time

The Bronze Age Handling Box Project arose an ambition at the National Museum of Ireland to enable young people to learn about the past through the study and handling of objects.

It enables young people to work as historians and archaeologists and encourages them to engage with the past in a thought-provoking and fun way.
