Ola, como estas?
It is our last week here in Tenerife, so me and Zala went to see some things we haven’t seen before. We went to see some museums of Tenerife so we can know more things about it. Maria, when we work at told as that there is a museum of Tenerife called museum of nature and archaeology. And there inside are mummies, archeologic things that were found in Tenerife. Me and Zala were really interested so we decided to go and look this interesting things.
It was Wednesday around 15:30, because the museum works from 10 am to 5 pm. There was a lot said about all the seven Canary islands.
In the museum you can find everything, how do volcanoes work, lower dry zone vegetation, laurel forest, thermoplastics groves and ravines, littoral, highlands…
All the national and most popular birds were displayed in the museum. And in which parts of the island they lived. There were other animals too, bugs and many other ocean animals…
And for me, the most interesting were the mummies, skulls, ancestral bones. There was like a wall with skulls, and it was so cool to see it. It said that their genetics are the science that deals whit heredity and the problems associated with it, providing extremely important data for relating ind individuals to each other and for understanding the modes of transmission of many diseases. Currently it is possible to study DNA in mummies and bones from past ages which is really interesting.
The museum is full of visual examples and it is a very cool museum. It is really detailed so if you ever come to Tenerife, I recommend you go and visit it.
