Archaeology Day Dig

Archaeology Day moves online for 2020 with a new website resource

Michigan Archaeology Day’s brand-new webpage brings together the best of the in-person event in an easy-to-use online format.

Archaeology is much more than just digging—it is cooperative research, analysis, reporting, curation, stewardship, education and public outreach. The new website has information and resources on all of these important topics. 

Explore active archaeology projects from around the state, take virtual tours and find activities for the entire family to enjoy. The website features videos, maps and other resources that are interesting for people of all ages. 

Learn about thousands of years of history, new digital technologies for photographing and studying artifacts and what to do if you think you might have found part of a shipwreck.
