Belize History in Bottles Museum is the first public display from Mr. Emory Kings bottle collection. He is considered by many to be a foremost authority on Belizean History. The museum features bottles from as far back as 1670. Displays include glass & ceramic used for wine, whiskey, champagne, jam, beer, cosmetics, food, medicine, and ink. Emory King: The Man Behind the Bottles: The name Emory King is probably recognized by more people in Belize, (and thousands of people abroad) than any other, except the Right Hon. George Price, the Father of our Country, and Hon. Said Musa, our Prime Minister. In the 1960s he found an antique bottle lodged in the mangrove along the Belize City sea front. That started him collecting old bottles found in Belize. He is not sure how many he had found, bought and traded for over the years. He has graciously allowed us to display a selection here in the Museum. Also Please feel free to visit our on site Butterfly Farm |
