Uniform Title:
Crossroads - travelling through the Middle Ages, AD 300-1000
Content:
In the Early Middle Ages, Europe was a place of great change and mobility. The influence of ancient civilisations continued to be felt, while at the same time, new religions from the Middle East began to take hold. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476, entire populations were on the move. This dynamism brought a huge amount of cultural exchange and diversity. The countless beautiful objects from every corner of the continent that can be seen in 'Crossroads' are not only a testimony to the plural identity of Europe, but also to the mutual influence in different spheres: religious, cultural and material.00Exhibition: Allard Pierson Museum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (15.09.2017-11.02.2018)
