Collection of Pre-Columbian Objects
In 2016, the University of Göttingen received a collection of about 300 pre-Columbian objects from the estate of the agronomist Erich Carl Raddatz (1924-2010). These are objects that date back to the time before the 'discovery' of America by Christopher Columbus and were found on the territory of the present-day state of Colombia. The collection focuses on objects from two archaeological complexes in southern Colombia, known as Tumaco and Nariño. Their sphere of influence extended beyond the borders of present-day Colombia and can also be traced to present-day Ecuador, where the Tumaco culture is known as La Tolita.
