Though the room is small, the place is filled with information. Many of the artefacts exposed are described in great details. It also has a slice of the soil built into a wall with the first evidence of our early ancestors coming from Asia to come across North America. I would have given 4 stars, but I am giving 5 since Mr. Rob Rondeau took time to show me personally some of the exhibition and also took time to hear and add on to my curiosity and enquiries about themes I have shown and would like to extend on in class with my grade 3 students. I had a wonderful experience!

Lots of concrete but a nice building on top of a large hill. Pretty easy pay parking.

Museum of Archeology and ethnology is on SFU campus very close to SFU transportation exchange bay. Museum is well maintained and having beautiful sculptures also it has some unique carvings and history structures. If you are on SFU campus then its a must visit place for you.

Quite small, just one room within the bigger university building. It is almost completely dedicated to the history of Aboriginal people's rather than archeology of a broader range, which might not be of interest to everyone. There is a great profile of a complete rock slab on a far wall, showing all the layers of BC with explanations for each layer.

It's cool because it is part of the university but overall useless compared to UBCs museum of anthropology. Good to check out and do some photography in and the first nations art is absolutely stunning
