The museum is not an exact representation of a certain type of a Melian household, but starting from the heterogeneous objects, the aspects of life of the inhabitants in that time period are presented: their dealings inside and outside the house, their influences from other regions, their nutritional and dress preferences, their ways of entertainment, the organizing of space and time and the exploitation of the local resources.<\/p>\n<p>This two-storeyed museum is made of a living-room and the unique exhibits located in it, the work place where the loom is found, the house\u2019s kitchen room, the bedroom, the cellar (used also for the storage of rural products), and the top-floor which constitutes a historic record.
