The Field Museum's 10 Hidden Gems

Most visitors to Chicago's Field Museum squeeze in only a fraction of the 480,000 artifacts on display. Here are 10 don't-miss finds.

Fossilized bugs

Use one of the magnifying glasses and study insects trapped in tree resin in the Small Treasures Gallery. Some of the bugs in the amber time capsules are older than Sue, the museum's famous T. rex. You'll see tennis-ball-size Goliath beetles and exotic butterflies with tie-dye-like wing designs.
