About the Event

This reading group delves into the fascinating world of archaeological maps, equipping you with the skills to decipher their symbols and unlock the stories hidden beneath the surface.  We'll explore the purpose and history of archaeological maps, learning to interpret the symbols that reveal details about past civilizations and their settlements.  Through group discussions and interactive exercises, we'll analyze real archaeological maps, drawing conclusions about site layout, features, and potential activities.  You'll have the opportunity to practice your map reading skills with online resources and explore the exciting future of digital mapping in archaeological research.

This group welcomes anyone curious about the secrets buried in the past. No prior knowledge of archaeology is required, just a thirst for knowledge and a passion for unraveling the mysteries left behind.  Join us on a journey through time, guided by the language of archaeological maps!
