There are four major archaeological collections in the Museum, which include the Maglioni Collection with a considerable amount of artefacts mainly collected from the Haifeng district in Guangdong province; the Fr. Finn Collection with finds unearthed in Lamma Island; the 58 burial objects of the Eastern Han dynasty excavated from the Lei Cheng Uk Han Tomb; and the collection of artefacts excavated by the Hong Kong Archaeological Society from various sites in the territory before 1976. All these collections form an inventory of archaeological materials found in Hong Kong, representing a history of local human activities of about 6,000 years.
