Archaeology Courses in London
Humans are historical beings. We both intentionally and unintentionally access and engage our past in many ways. Our reliance on language, social norms and traditions are some examples. History and memory others.
Beyond these, we also make sense of our past through remains and artefacts and, not least, the still present but often less known remaining parts of our past in our physical surroundings in our villages, towns and cities. Archaeology is the best way to explore these!
Join our archaeology courses to explore the different layers of London’s and our past. Our courses are welcoming and open to everyone.
