Prehistory Collection


From ancient landscapes and fossils to Bronze-age art, Llandudno Museum and Gallery has a prehistory collection that is truly unique. For instance, meet Blodwen, the 5,500-year-old Neolithic skeleton of a woman discovered on the Little Orme in 1880. Or look at Thomas Kendrick’s collection discovered on the Great Orme in 1881. Kendrick’s cave was a burial site over 10,000 years old and contained art from the last ice age such as a decorated horse jaw and decorated bear tooth necklace beads.
