That collection of dinosaur bones is amazing @jamethiel. Do you know why there was a Roman exhibition there as well ? (apologies for my ignorance :)

The Roman exhibit is traveling around the country. The Museum of the Rockies has an exhibit space that is used to bring neat things like this one to Montana. There was a great Egyptian one about 2 years ago and a history of cartoons last year. Next month an interactive history of guitars and music will be in that space, and in November they will have the Arctic photography and exploration exhibit. By having a rotating interactive exhibition, they get repeat customers like us and local folks have a reason to visit on a regular basis. In the dinosaur area is a laboratory viewing section where visitors can watch paleontology staff carefully work on removing rock matrix from around dinosaur bones.
That's a great strategy @jamethiel ! I love visiting museums and art centres.
