尼古尔森博物馆 Nicholson Museum
The Nicholson Museum houses the University of Sydney's collection of antiquities, one of the largest in the Southern Hemisphere. It is located at the southern entrance to the Quadrangle of the Main Campus of the University of Sydney.
The Nicholson Museum was created in 1860 and was originally known as the 'Museum of Antiquities of Sydney University'. From 1888, the collection became known as the 'Nicholson Museum' in honour of its first and greatest benefactor, Sir Charles Nicholson, Provost (Chancellor) of the University from 1854 - 1862.
The Museum primarily houses artifacts from the Near East, Egypt, Greece and Rome and forms the research and teaching collection of the University's Department of Archaeology.
The Nicholson Museum is freely open to the public weekdays during most of the year.

Māori in early Sydney
On February 02 2019 the Macleay Museum's curator of ethnography Rebecca Conway, introduced two Māori-Australian historians who shared their knowledge and insights into some of the key characters and fascinating episodes of early Māori in Sydney.
Maintaining strong genealogical and cultural connections to Aotearoa – New Zealand, today one in six Māori call Australia home. From the earliest days of the British Colony, large numbers of Māori visited and based themselves in the emerging port city, particularly for the development of trade and strategic alliances.
Jo Maarama Kamira is of Te Rarawa, Te Aupouri, Nga Puhi, Ngati Whakaue and Maussie descent and has a background in law enforcement. Jo researched and wrote the entry on Māori for the Dictionary of Sydney (2012) and the publication, Māori Trade & Relations in Parramatta (2016).
Brent Kerehona (Pukepuke-Ahitapu) of Ngāpuhi descent, is a high school history teacher with a military background. Brent is currently researching, writing and producing texts and films centred on his whanaunga family member, rangatira (chief) Hongi Hika (1772-1828), an 1814 carved bust of whom is currently on display as part of the Nicholson Museum, Connections exhibition.

A life in Archaeology: In Conversation with Judy Birmingham
On March 21 2017 Associate Professor Judy Birmingham joined Dr Craig Barker at the Nicholson Museum for a conversation about her archaeological career spanning decades and encompassing the pre-historic through to the historic. Birmingham is a significant figure in the history of archaeology in Australia. She studied at the Institute of Archaeology in London under Sir Max Mallowan and undertook extensive fieldwork in the Middle East, Cyprus, Greece and Britain with some of the most famous and fascinating figures of 20th century archaeology. Beginning with the Near East, she went on to pioneer the development of Australian historical archaeology in the 1970s and 1980s, leading excavations at sites such as Irrawang, Wybalenna and Regentville.
Sharing memories of the resistance she overcame while developing Australian historical archaeology courses, Judy and Craig discussed what it was like to be the first female archaeological staff member at the University, and her involvement with the Nicholson and Macleay Museum collections over five decades.
