Lonely Planet review for National Museum

Although less visually stimulating than the Ethnological Museum, the National Museum is no less thought-provoking. Its collection ranks among sub-Saharan Africa's most important. The palaeontology exhibit contains two remarkable casts of 3.2-million-year-old Lucy, a famously-fossilised upright hominid discovered in 1974. Upstairs are some celebrated Ethiopian artworks.
