Digging The Past: Learning Through Artifacts with MSU’s Campus Archaeology Program
A range of interactive activities will be available at the Michigan State Campus Archaeology Program's table at Science Fest 2024 to educate attendees about the field of archaeology and the process of generating knowledge about previous human civilizations through material culture. Participants in Science Fest will have the opportunity to observe exhibits from CAP's digs on the MSU campus, reconstruct ceramic vessels, identify objects, and gain knowledge about stratigraphy, excavation, and laboratory work related to archaeology. Visit us to see how archaeologists decipher historical evidence left by others!
