What is cuneiform and how is it made? How do you erase words written on a clay tablet? Learn to write and read some of this ancient script. Take a “field trip” over to the Semitic Museum to see real archaeological examples, and then come back to the Peabody to try your hand at using a stylus on clay before making a take-home craft!

Appropriate for ages 8 and up accompanied by an adult. $5 materials fee per child with Peabody Museum admission.
