Learn about archaeology – from the ground up!
DigVentures online courses cover everything from how archaeologists decide where to dig, to the top tech we use to record our discoveries in 3D. Each one is produced by our friendly team of professional archaeologists, and is packed with videos, quizzes, conversation starters, case studies, top tips, and the occasional hands-on activity that you can try at home. Plus, they're all approved by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists... and by our community!
