2. How is a museum critical to the development of a nation, What does it mean to visit a museum as a humanities student, What does it mean to visit a museum as a humanities student?
A museum is very critical and important to the development of a nation simply because it serves as a inspiration of who, what, why, and how that shaped our nation to what it is today. It reminds us of the culture of our ancestors and their ways of living, the things they used, and their behaviors back in the day. And a museum serves as a tourist destination for the locals and foreigners which would help the economy. It means that I get to visit a museum because we were required by the teacher and we have some homework to do. Besides that, I learned something about artifacts like how old it look and how ancient it smells.
