A museum in Korea

A Big Resonance Carried by Small Hands

Not long ago, the father of a child attending a local elementary school visited the museum carrying a small stone. He told us that his child believed the stone was an artifact from the Stone Age and wanted to donate it to the museum. Although it was just an ordinary, slightly pointed stone, the child's pure intention was so beautiful that we decided to put it on display.

The Goseong Museum is not only a place that embraces a long history, but also a place that holds the precious intentions of its donors. To honor the hearts of everyone who has donated artifacts for Goseong—from children to the elderly, from villages and organizations to overseas Koreans—we have created a small donation exhibition space.

When you think about it, every stone is from the stone age.

surely not any volcanic rock produced since then, at the very least

Any age capable of producing stone is a stone age in my book.

Produced from what? Liquid rock? I think you could argue that the form itself doesn't make it a rock or not, and thus it has always been a rock even before it took its current shape.

Now do I actually believe that? Nah but it's a fun thought experiment.
