Europeans are passionate for this far away civilisations and the wealthier get their own cabinet of curiosities. That was how a first temporary ethnographic Museum gathering many private collections opened its doors in Paris in 1878.

In 1938 the Museum of Man took over and settled in the Palais de Chaillot so as to trace the story of human-being.
