Archivist at the British Museum. My dream job ❤

[zeropointconsciousness]

So interesting.
I would love to work in amongst all the antiquities.

This is truly quite fascinating. I had a great chuckle while imagining some 19th century British people walking into The British Museum gasping and then looking at the towering stuffed giraffes like "What the absolute hell are those things????".

I love all these videos. Many of the curators lack charisma but their passion for their subject smolders under their stodgy exteriors and their expertise shins bright regardless. Ms Hiller is undoubtedly an unsung hero, I'm glad I saw her.

How does she log ang relocate some of those heavier objects?

Is she alone on her job?
Does she have assistants?
Is she secrety Wonder Woman?
