Bringing Ancient History to Life

The Explorations in Antiquity Center in LaGrange, Georgia, is a living museum of life in ancient times. Through archeological replicas, Biblical meal presentations, lectures, and other personal experiences, ancient Middle Eastern life becomes real today. Step back into time as you sit in an authentic goat-hair tent like the nomadic shepherds have lived in for thousands of years. See tombs like those in which Abraham and Jesus were buried. Visit a village and city gate area to see what life was like 2000 years ago. Dine with the ancients as you share a Passover Meal much like that which Jesus ate at the Last Supper. Enter the Time Tunnel and learn about the worship practices of pagans, Jews, and Christians from 2500 BCE to 500 CE by exploring replicas of excavated houses of worship from Israel. These opportunities and so many more wait for you at the Explorations in Antiquity Center! We hope that your visit to our web site will be the first step towards your journey to visit us in person.
