Program

Join us for this unique opportunity to learn how archaeologists explore the past through hands-on, interactive activities. After an introduction to archaeology and discussion of the main principles that every archaeologist follows, we bring out our archaeology field pack and discuss the tools and steps of an archaeological dig. Participants then have the opportunity to excavate the Code Rose site, a simulated archaeological site complete with mysteries and features. Students each dig a square, recover artifacts, identify and date them and discuss how they contribute to the story of what happened at the site.
