Virginia Archaeology Month: Arc-tober Fest
[/vc_column_text][mk_divider margin_top=”10″ margin_bottom=”10″][vc_wp_text]On Saturday, October 12, Â鶹ֱ²¥ was pleased to participate in the inaugural Arc-tober Fest organized by in celebration of Virginia Archaeology Month. With more than a dozen organizations, the event gathered archaeological organizations & departments around the DMV area at Sully Historic Site in Chantilly, VA for a day of public outreach and learning of the profession and the archaeological resources found in Fairfax County. Visitors were able to learn about a wide variety of archaeological organizations, career opportunities in the field, , and engage in interactive, hands-on activities led by real archaeologists. Tours of the Sully House were offered as well as a presentation about the archaeology of the reconstructed Quarter Cabin, believed to be the quarters of enslaved people of the Lee family.[/vc_wp_text][vc_single_image image=”99842″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][mk_padding_divider size=”20″][vc_single_image image=”99843″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][mk_padding_divider size=”20″][vc_column_text]Â鶹ֱ²¥’s table included informative posters about our organization and Cultural Heritage Initiatives, plus a few activities for children and adults. For children, we provided coloring sheets of mosaics from the El Jem Archaeological Museum in Tunisia as well as Â鶹ֱ²¥ stickers. Additionally, we had trivia sheets geared towards adults with questions that covered the basics of archaeology (“What archaeological dating method uses tree rings to determine the age of wooden artifacts?”) as well as specialized questions about the Near East (“In the 9th century BCE, the Phoenicians founded what ancient city in what is now modern-day Tunisia?”). We also had a selection of our publications, including several
Near Eastern Archaeology journals that we gave away for free to visitors.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1716565351042{padding-right: 10px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”99844″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1716565359441{padding-right: 10px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”99845″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][mk_padding_divider size=”20″][vc_column_text]Â鶹ֱ²¥ is proud to have supported Arc-tober Fest as part of Virginia Archaeology Month.
