Honestly, the British Museum is kinda boring. The exhibits have no context, they don't really tell a story or teach us about life in ancient societies. It's just a collection of old stolen stuff, like some ancient hoarder's attic but with everything behind glass boxes.

London's other museums are excellent, though. The Science Museum is amazing.

They were not taken to teach the public, they were trophies. For context you'd have to read about them and put the pieces together yourself.
