History will be brought to life in Douglas today (Sat) - through the bones of an 8,000-year-old beast.
The Manx Museum has spent months refurbishing its prized giant deer skeleton, which has been on display for over a century.
Heritage conservator Christopher Weeks will deliver a special lecture on it in the Museum's lecture theatre at 2:30 this afternoon.
The imposing creature's story - from its life and death in prehistoric Mann, to its Victorian preservation and modern-day conservation - will be told in full.
Christopher said it's an exciting time for the Museum:
Reopening of Martin Ward delayed following further safety checks
Major reservoir projects completed on time and on budget
Law Society responds to 'anecdotal' reports of conveyancing log-jam
Repair scheme an 'antidote to throwaway culture'
