Archaeology School (for Kids)

So far we have found a burial mound, round houses and furnaces. The children will have the opportunity to excavate at the round house sites whilst also visit the burial mound whilst it is being excavated by adult archaeologists and volunteers. 

Cam, archaeologist, will show the children what we have been up to, explore the history of it all through story and facts and the showing of the artefacts found so far.  He will then teach the children a variety of real archeology techniques including the following:

• Excavation Techniques – Reading the soil, use of trowel, how to read and understand features
