Film Description The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology on the Penn campus in Philadelphia dates its official founding to December 6, 1887. On that date, the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania resolved to send "an exploring expedition to Babylonia"—with the stipulation that the University would build "suitable accommodations" to house any artifacts that the first expedition team, and others, would bring back.
