Charles D. Tandy Museum

The Charles D. Tandy Archaeological Museum, located on the first floor of the A. Webb Roberts Library, displays artifacts from Tel Batash in Israel (the biblical city Timnah mentioned in Judges 14:1-5), epigraphic materials from Qumran, coins from the Hellenistic to the Byzantine Periods, seals and amulets from Egypt and Mesopotamia, clay tablets from Ur of the Chaldeans, rare Coptic textiles, and much more.

The museum produces regular exhibits, lectures and self-teaching displays that highlight the various cultures that existed throughout the Near East in antiquity. It also serves as the archaeology lab for the seminary's Tandy Institute for Archaeology program. We invite you to browse our collections and direct any inquiries to our trained staff of archaeologists and cultural historians.
