The MUMA preserves several collections of Amazonian material (natural history and ethnographic), coming predominantly from the region of the upper Solim\u00f5es River, where the Umbrian Capuchin friars arrived in 1909. The first nucleus was assembled in 1925 with the aim of taking part in the \u201cMostra Missionaria Internazionale\u201d (International Missionary Exhibition) that Pope Pius XI decided to mount in the Basilica of St. John Lateran in Rome on the occasion of the Holy Year celebrations. Once the exhibition had ended, the objects and natural history specimens were taken to the convent of Todi (PG), where on 29 April 1928 the \u201cMuseo Amazzonico\u201d was inaugurated. Subsequently, the collection was further enriched by material gathered by Father Fedele d\u2019Alviano on the occasion of another \u201cMostra Missionaria\u201d\u2014this time promoted by Pius XII to celebrate the Holy Year of 1950. In 1971 the provincial superiors decided to reorganize and transfer the missionary museum to Assisi where, in 1973, the \u201cMuseo degli Indios dell\u2019Amazzonia\u201d was established. It was conceived by Father Luciano Matarazzi on the basis of the donations already mentioned and of further donations made by missionaries traveling between Italy and the upper Solim\u00f5es. Finally, in 2011 it gave way to the MUMA.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t
