It’s impossible to ignore the diorama when visiting the Man and the Living Museum. The diorama is a large, three-dimensional display that features impressive taxidermy animals and simulates scenery and wildlife from a particular region. The use of dioramas is common in nature museums in Israel and abroad. At the Man and the Living Museum you can view an impressive diorama of the Judean Desert. The diorama tells the tale of the animals that previously inhabited, and currently live, in this region of the country.
By observing the diorama, one can meet animals that currently live in the Judean Desert, learn about the challenges they face in Israeli nature and about the connections between them. Through the diorama you can also become acquainted with animals that existed here in the past but have since become extinct, and investigate the causes of their extinction.

Tracing the origin of man exposes us to a winding detective story, similar to a relay race, in which we see segments of the course from the points of transfer between participants, but never the full racetrack.
The Prehistoric Man exhibition at the Man and the Living Museum is a primordial exhibit which traces human history, the various stages of its development, the places of occurrence and the ways in which we spread on Earth.
We invite you to embark on a journey through time – from the big bang to the various homo-classifications, through to present day.
