Benjamin Lerman Coady Found an Error in Byzantine Gallery Map

The 7th grader Benjamin came just like an ordinary visitor in Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City to witness the Byzantine Gallery and other exhibits. However, this little guy show a brave attempt to inform the front desk about the error he found in a certain map. It is because he is also knowledgeable of the entire thing he learned from grade school.

According to him, the map showing the Byzantine Empire is not accurate and pointing Spain as well Africa as the missing piece. In addition to this report, he reach out just to inform the people working behind the exhibit but for the first place, he is just a kid, a 13-year-old boy and his voice is not loud enough to be heard by anyone around during that time.

Furthermore, the senior and vice president for external affairs of museum send an email to Benjamin telling him that they are now working to correct the error he found few months ago. And they started a detailed review just to figure out the right map from the classical Justinian empire. He was invited to see Helen Evans, the curator of the art exhibit to know more about him.

Benjamin is now a celebrity kid because of his contribution in The MET, the most prestigious museum in the country and in restoration of the medieval work of art. This young historian can probably make a few important stuff in the future aside from discovering that mistake because of his curiosity.
