Yeah, I've wanted to be an archaeologist for as long as I can remember as well. Something about never wanting to grow out of playing in the dirt... x.com/AskAnArch/stat…

Seconded!!! #askanarchaeologist x.com/AskAnArch/stat…

Check out all the places where folks are participating in #AskAnArchDay. Bring on your questions; those of us in the Western Hemisphere still have plenty of daylight left! #askanarchaeologist x.com/Nathalie_Cohen…

Look at local museums and sites for public programs. Many places with active excavations have public outreach that involves anything from talks and tours to "public dig days" when you can help screen and learn more about the process. Come talk to us! #askanarchaeologist

What's the most unusual object in our collection, you ask? Alison Roberts, Curator of European and Early Prehistory writes, "It just has to be one of my favourite objects in the entire museum, which is a commemorative anti-slavery biscuit made c.1790-1820" (1/2) #AskACurator
