What is the most important thing to see at the Field Museum?
What is the most important thing to see at the Field Museum? The most important thing to see at the Field Museum is that it showcases an evolving planet. Another thing that I enjoy seeing at the Field Museum is the Hall of gems. Something that I find more interesting than any of the other exhibits at the Field Museum is the floor. You know there are fossils in these tiles? The very foundation of our museum is comprised of thousands of invertebrate fossils from 325 million years ago that today is located in Carthage, Missouri. But Wikipedia has no information about a past 325 million years ago any more interesting than when it was founded in 1841. And today, Carthage is more well-known for its role as a Precious Moments Park and Chapel and there is nothing on its page about what it was once known for - being a invertebrate hot spot back in the Carboniferous period which frankly, I find more compelling than anything else 325 million years ago.
