Ginger 3400 BC...............

This is Ginger. He died in about 3400 BC. He now lives in the British Museum,on the second floor. We went to visit him today. It is so strange to look at his hands and imagine that he once held food and washed himself with those very hands all those thousands of years ago. Ginger is cool.
On the ground floor is my favourite object in the museum. He is called the Molossian hound.
He used to live in Rome, and he wore a lovely big leather collar.
