Flush with Interest in India
By Linda Tancs
Loos, privies, chamber pots, water closets–call it whatever you like, the toilet is an indispensable element of human hygiene. Though it might not generate much mention in polite conversation, those flush with interest can indulge their curiosity in its evolution at New Delhi’s Sublabh International Museum of Toilets. Hailed as the only exhibition of its kind, the museum traces the evolution of the toilet and includes Victorian-era chamber pots and ancient carved and decorated commodes. A highlight is the replica of King Louis XIV’s throne, allegedly outfitted to allow for potty breaks while conducting official business. A royal flush, indeed.
