Museum of Antiquities, Archaeological museum at University of Saskatchewan, Canada

The Museum of Antiquities exhibits full-scale replicas of Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Near Eastern sculptures alongside original ancient artifacts and coins.

Founded in 1974 by professors Michael Swan and Nicholas Gyenes, the museum began with replicas from the Louvre and expanded through university support.

The collection presents artworks spanning from 3000 BC to 1500 CE, including the Charioteer of Delphi and panels from the Parthenon frieze.

Located in Room 106 of Peter MacKinnon Building, the museum opens Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 4 PM and Saturday from noon to 4:30 PM.

The museum maintains one of the few plaster cast collections in Canada, featuring replicas that preserve the exact condition of original sculptures.
