msk Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 March is Archaeology Month in Arizona, Arkansas, and Florida. There are a lot of fun events for families, almost all of them free! Other states celebrate in April, May, September, or October. You can look yours up here: http://saa.org/ForthePublic/NewsEvents/ArchaeologyWeeksMonths/ArchaeologyWeekMonthbyState/tabid/143/Default.aspx My fellow Arizonans can check out all the activities by downloading the "Event Calendar" from the State Parks website, http://azstateparks.com/. My young daughters and elementary-aged nephews especially enjoy the Archaeology Expo and Ancient Technology Day events here in the Phoenix area; we've tried throwing spears with an atlatl, tasting roasted agave hearts, and mock excavations, and have met all sorts of interesting people. The hikes and lectures tend to be more middle/high school speed. The event calendar for Arkansas is here: http://www.uark.edu/campus-resources/archinfo/archmonthevents2011.html Florida doesn't seem to have theirs up yet for 2011, but the 2010 version is here: http://www.flheritage.com/archaeology/education/month/index.cfm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
