Run by “an over-enthusiastic anthropology and ancient history student from New Zealand,” the Ancient Art blog pays homage to everything from ancient Chinese sculpture to European cave paintings to Egyptian pyramids. The photos are delightful, but the descriptions are even better, with factoids, quotes, and tidbits full of information about what you’re seeing. It’s enough to inspire us to check it out in person.
