If you were a Roman merchant living in Anatolia during the Roman Empire, what would you experience in the bazaar in one day?
You are an Assyrian merchant in the early 2nd millennium BC, and you made a long and tiring journey from Mesopotamia to Anatolia. What would your first night be like in Karum Kanesh, the great commercial city of Kayseri, today? Exploring the past is full of mysteries and lots of fun. In this workshop, children embark on a journey to the past mediated by their imagination, inspired by the works in The Art of Weights and Measures exhibition. The stories they construct together with the fictions and dreams about history are shared by turning into painting, song, poetry, sculpture and even dance.
