Archaeology Safaris - Field Trips, Field Schools and Expeditions.

Archaeology Safaris is a limited company run by Archaeologists and has provided field trips to a variety of destinations since 2001. These journeys back through time concentrate on visiting pre-historic sites and monuments that help tell the story of Human development over thousands of years. The periods investigated are mainly the Neolithic (or new stone age), Bronze Age and Iron Age, although in some cases the field trips include evidence of Human activity dating back many thousands of years to the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic periods. In small groups accompanied by Archaeologists these trips explore the settlement areas, burial monuments and ritual landscapes that were all important to these ancient people. Discovering the skills and technologies that enabled them to live in settled communities, develop agriculture, express themselves in the form of Rock Art and join together to build huge stone and earthen monuments.

Aims and Research:

Archaeology Safaris conduct these field trips to encourage those with a genuine interest in Archaeology, to look at monuments and landscapes and experience them whilst listening to Archaeologists talk about the evidence that helps us theorise about how our ancestors lived. The aim of Archaeology Safaris is to provide field trips with first class information about Archaeology in Britain & Europe, which then helps fund further Rock Art research and provides an opportunity for all to take part in a variety of field work activities.
