There were different sections in the Vatican museum which had cultural relics and this would be from the African section. There were art works from through out the world which were collected by missionaries we presume. Below are two SheShe dogs. The one on the left is a male Chinese SheShe dog with his paw on the world while the one on the right would be a female with her paw on a cub. | ![]() |

There was also what we presumed was an Egyptian section with the statue above on the left (doesn't it look Egyptian to you)? Looks like the Sphinx, but much smaller of course. Next to that is an Egytian painting. Here on and on the right below are Egytian mummies while there is an Egytian sarcophagus on the left below. | ![]() |

Above and here are pictures from a chapel we visited which had some really wonderful statues by Michael Angelo of Moses with different views. This is one the mosaics we saw on the ceiling. | ![]() |
