Antonino Salinas Archaeological Museum
The Salinas museum gathers finds from across ancient Sicily in Palermo's former Olivella complex. Selinunte sculpture, Punic sarcophagi and the Palermo Stone reward a focused collection visit.
The museum makes it possible to compare Sicily's Greek, Phoenician and Egyptian-linked histories without leaving the city. Look first at Selinunte's temple sculpture, then at the Punic sarcophagi and the Palermo Stone; their different origins show the island's reach across the Mediterranean.
What to look for
Selinunte temple metopes and the Gorgon
Punic sarcophagi from Pizzo Cannita
The Palermo Stone, a fragment of ancient Egyptian royal annals
