Inside this concrete monstrosity there are a number of floors of historical objects, ceremonial dress, traditional jewelry and paintings by modern artists. In the basement, there is a collection of archaeological objects, including 'Lucy', the hominid woman discovered in eastern Ethiopia in 1974 and dated at 3.5 million years old.
