British Museum says too many Asian names on labels can be confusing

Museum apologises for any offence caused after criticism on Twitter over curator’s comment about exhibition labels

A curator from the British Museum has claimed they “have to be careful about using too many” Asian names on exhibit labels, as they can be confusing to teenagers.

The museum was taking part in #AskACurator on Twitter, in which staff at museums around the world answer questions.
