India, May 18 -- The recently restored and opened Framji Dadabhoy Alpaiwalla Museum, or the Parsi museum, showcases the heritage of Parsis of India and Zoroastrians of Iran. It houses a collection of cuneiform bricks and tablets from Babylon, Mesopotamia and Susa dating back to 4,000 to 5,000 BCE. There are Parsi garas, traditional textiles embroidered in China, antique furniture, lamps and the circular structure of the modern-day Tower of Silence, used for sky burials, among others. An interesting object is a Mesopotamian receptacle for the dead, excavated in Yazd, Iran. Made of baked clay, this is where the dead were laid to rest, exposed to nature and consumed by birds and wild animals. Access: Between 10.30 am and 5.30 pm from Tuesday to Sunday. Entry is free....
