163 Artifacts


So, on our field trip we saw the Tribune Tower and went on a mini-scavenger hunt to find a piece that was built into the wall. It was pretty cool seeing all of the different artifacts and even seeing a piece of moon rock on display in the gift shop window, but my question is...how many total artifacts are built into the wall today??

According to wikipedia, there are a total of 163 artifacts!! There are so many artifacts, but here are just a few: a piece of the Taj Mahal, a piece of the Great Wall of China, a part of the Berlin Wall, some of the Great Pyramid, and even a fragment of Abraham Lincoln's tomb.
