Hong Kong Heritage Discovery
Centre (HKHDC)
"To Dig & to Learn" Workshop
What is archaeology? How old are the
finds excavated in Hong Kong? In order to enrich students' knowledge
on Field Archaeology, HKHDC has specially organized this workshop.
During the workshop, our tutor will introduce basic knowledge on
archaeology to participants through games, mock-up excavation and
surveying work. It aims to allow participants to gain knowledge
in archaeologists' work, and learn how to differentiate finds through
excavation. Our tutor will begin the workshop by a briefing on Archaeology
and its major discoveries in Hong Kong, followed by surveying and
excavation. At the end of the workshop, students will report and
share their findings. Details of the workshop are as follows:
