SUMMARY:Cursed! The Power of Magic in the Ancient World
DESCRIPTION:From love charms to curse tablets\, uncover the spellbinding ways ancient cultures tried to bend the world to their will. \nFor millennia\, people across Mesopotamia\, Egypt\, Greece\, and Rome turned to magic for protection\, for healing\, to curse their enemies\, and to seek favor from powers beyond the human realm. Ancient magic was woven into daily life and ritual practice—sometimes accepted and sometimes feared. Cursed! invites visitors to step into an exciting world of spells\, amulets\, and protective figures dating from 2000 BCE to 300 CE. \nThis exhibition brings exceptional works in a variety of materials to Toledo\, including intricately carved ivory wands\, brilliant gems\, rare magical papyri\, and lead curse tablets from the Louvre\, the British Museum\, the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, and other institutions. These objects reveal a shared human desire: to influence the unseen forces shaping life and death. \nGet your tickets now \nTicket Ranges:\nUnless otherwise noted\, ticket categories are defined as follows: \n• Ages 0–4: Free\, no ticket required\n• Ages 5–17: Child ticket\n• Ages 18 and up: Adult ticket \nThese age ranges apply to events and exhibition tickets only.
