"Historia Terrae" - The Earth's History
The meaning of "Historia Terrae"is The Earth's History translated in Latin. Earth is the only planet in our solar system that is not derived from Greco-Roman mythology, the Romans actually used a Latin word; Tera (Terra), for Earth. Therefore, I decided to pay the Latin culture homage and have name of my collection in Latin language. The Rice Northwest Museum of Rocks and Minerals in Hillsboro, Oregon, is my museum of choice because it's wrapped solely around the history of strictly rocks and minerals, which is very rare because a lot of museums aren't based off of the history and observations of just rocks.
