⏰You can still apply for our archaeological field school 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐒𝐚𝐦𝐧𝐢𝐮𝐦!
In this archaeological field school, you explore the archaeology of mountain society with an international team while doing pedestrian survey and geophysical prospection in the hills and mountains of the Central Apennines. Although the focus of the project is on research, not on teaching, the high staff-student ratio provides ample room for learning in practice. It consists of intensive field and lab work: mainly pedestrian field survey, as well as the study of the finds and GIS documentation in the lab, and geophysical prospection.
BA, (R)MA and PhD students in Archaeology, Ancient History, Classics, Geoarchaeology and related fields enrolled at one of the KNIR partner universities in the Netherlands are encouraged to apply.
Dates: 13 September - 18 October 2026
NB: Due to limited spaces, students can now only apply for dates between 27 September and 18 October.
