Step into the Village Life Gallery, where history comes alive, and the whispers of Chaldean villages fill the air.

A group of sixth graders visiting the Chaldean Museum is transported into the world of northern Iraq’s ancient villages in the Nineveh region. The life-sized mannequins, the scent of freshly baked bread, and the echo of church bells remind the children of their grandparents’ homes. They explore scenes of everyday life in Tel Keppe, once the largest Chaldean town, and Alqosh, the mountain refuge, learning about the rich traditions of farming, faith, and family that have sustained these resilient communities for generations.

As they marvel at lantern-lit displays and the melodies of traditional lullabies, the students discover the enduring legacy of these villages—a legacy of strength, community, and culture that continues to inspire.

This third installment in The Magical Museum series immerses readers in the rich history, culture, and traditions of Chaldean life in northern Iraq. Themes of heritage, resilience, and the connection between past and present create a vivid and unforgettable experience for readers of all ages.
