The Latin word `museum` is derived from the Greek work ;musuem` in which it means a temple dedicated to the Muses, or the Greek goddesses of the arts and sciences. This word `museums` it thus the most apt word for the modern storehouses of the works of nature and man in their diverse ramifications, though they no longer convey the sense of a temple for worship as the original word did.
In modern times, however, the concept of a museum has widened. Its purpose now is to stimulate curiosity, pleasures and even awe by confrontation with the works of nature and man. It has become a cultural centre where activities of all kinds that widen mind`s horizons and elevate the spirit centered around various artfacts of man and nature take place.
