National Archaeology Week with the Young Archaeologists' Club
National Archaeology Week starts tomorrow, Saturday 14th July to Sunday 22nd July. Organised by the Council for British Archaeology, there are countless conservation activities to get involved in throughout the country, from archaeology-themed guided tours of Dundee’s museum collections to being a ‘history detective’ at Bath’s Postal museum.
The aim of the week is to interest more young people in conservation, our country’s heritage, and in learning from history – all vital if we are to preserve so many precious things from the past while learning how to deal with our future. The Young Archaeologists’ Club is taking a lead in many events, so if you have any budding Indiana Jones at home, there should be an event for you nearby next week.
