The carefully selected artefacts range from seemingly ordinary everyday articles to famous works of art featured in school textbooks .
The 100 objects tell us deeply human stories about the people who used them — how they lived , what they believed , and the changes affecting their society .
Viewers are apt to encounter objects from regions and cultures unknown to them , and they may also be surprised by the discoveries they make concerning objects from cultures close to their own.
