Archaeology

Leader: Allan Mathieson.
Venue: Meetings on-line via U3A's Online Across Scotland website.
See Archaeology online across Scotland for further details.
Timing: September-May, Friday 2.00-3.30 pm.
Activity: Presentations by recognised experts and group members interspersed with visits to key museums and local sites of archaeological interest, led by relevant experts. Attendance at relevant conferences and locally-organised external lectures would be encouraged with group members requested to bring back knowledge to the larger group through short talks and presentations. During the summer months, trips (single/multi-day) could be organised to field events to field sites of interest, either for local groups or occasionally as a national group (eg to sites in Orkney, Shetland or Kilmartin Glen etc).
