Unbelievable treasures, secret key holders, princess tombs and heroic archeologists. Afghanistan, a country in the middle of the world where history has been rescued against all odds.

The new extraordinary exhibition on the cultural treasures of Afghanistan is now open at the Museum of Ethnography.

At the heart of the Silk Road, Afghanistan linked the great trading routes of ancient Iran, Central Asia, India and China, and the more distant cultures of Greece and Rome.

Nearly lost during the years of civil war and later Taliban rule, precious objects that reveal this diverse past were bravely hidden in 1989 by officials from the National Museum of Afghanistan to save them from destruction.

The surviving treasures date from 2000 BC to the 1st century AD and include opulent gold ornaments found at a tribal burial site and limestone sculptures of a Greek city.

An unique opportunity to discover the the story of Afghanistan's ancient culture, it's immense fragility, and the remarkable dedication shown to its survival and protection. (www.etnografiskamuseet.se)
