Each object that is on display in a museum can offer to the visitor knowledge, historical and archaeological information but mainly a glimpse into aspects of the culture that has created it. The location of the objects in a museum seems static: each object is placed usually among objects that are similar and of the same age, and which speak of a historical aspect and of a specific moment of the past. But this is only “half” of the truth, since these same museum objects can be viewed from a different perspective, can be selected by the use of other criteria, they may join other contextual frameworks, and so eventually recount other narratives related to “invisible” or less known aspects of life in the Byzantine and post-Byzantine era. Five narratives of that kind we are to listen, following five “invisible” thematic routes.
