JFA upcoming community archaeology excavations in 2020

Many of you have asked... so here´s the preliminary plan for the 2020 community archaeology excavation season (minor changes possible and also probable). No previous experience of archaeology is needed in order to participate. Children under 14 years of age can participate in the company of an adult.

Please send letters of interest to jfarchaeology@gmail.com for more information if you wish to participate. We also welcome foreign  archaeology students especially if you have an interest in the neolithic or WW2 conflict archaeology!
