Have you ever wondered how archaeologists know what an object is or how old it is?

Using the extensive archaeology collections from the Herbert, you will have the opportunity to get hands on and investigate a range of objects such as pottery and small finds including dress accessories. Students will be able to learn to identify finds, date them, work out how they were used or made, record, research them and much more.

Suitable for:
Beginners and those with some excavation experience.

Each day will include a one hour lunch break.
