Join experts in the field of archaeology as you participate in a real dig. Take artifacts from discovery, to analysis, to cataloging and shipping to archives. Live at the dig site and experience the job of an archaeologist first hand. Expand your knowledge of excavation and survey techniques by participating directly in the on-going research at the sites. You’ll also be able to connect with professionals in the field and learn the rigors of life on site. A student says: "It was mentally and physically challenging in a good way, all designed to make you stronger and learn a lot.”
