Introduction

Archaeology isn’t just about digging up the mysterious remains of the long dead. It can reveal how we used to live in amazing detail by uncovering the minutiae of everyday objects, entire buildings and even the wrecks of vessels deep under the sea.

It is a science that evolves as technology improves and there have been some amazing finds both on land and underwater.

Archaeology isn’t just for the experts; there are opportunities all over the UK for amateur enthusiasts to get involved at various levels.
