BA Archaeology

Archaeology offers you the opportunity to explore past humanity, from its prehistoric origins to industrialisation and globalisation, and to consider key challenges of modern society - from climate change and the impact of new technologies, to subtle understandings of gender, cultural identity and conflict.Through scientific analysis and interpretation of artefacts, ancient texts and inscriptions, architecture, human remains and landscapes, our courses have the study of past people at their heart, ranging geographically from Egypt and the Near East, across the Mediterranean, to the British Isles and North-West Europe.
