How To Do Archaeology (April 2020)
Always wanted to try archaeology? We’ve decided to open up our Virtual Fieldschool so that archaeology-fans around the world can come together and learn the ins and outs of archaeological excavation for FREE!
With so many of us stuck at home, we wanted to make sure that all you have-a-dig-heroes can still get down and dirty with your archaeological field skills. There’s plenty of try-at-home activities to keep you busy, plus you’ll get to chat with the DigVentures team and join forces with other students around the world to work your way through the six stages of an excavation – from choosing where to dig, to what happens to everything you find.
It’s endorsed by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists, so as well as having loads of fun, you’ll actually come away equipped with the basic knowledge that underpins every excavation!
Starts: Tuesday, 14th April 2020
Duration: Six weeks. Each week, you’ll get an email prompting you to start a new chapter and you’ll be able to access all the content until 31 May 2020.
Cost: FREE! Please note our booking system may still ask for payment details, but won’t charge you anything – we promise!
Learn Core Skills
What do you need to do before, during, and after your dig to ensure the proper standards and methods are used? What’s the point of drawing in the age of digital? What’s with all the string, and funny red and white sticks in the trenches?
Digging is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to doing archaeology, and this course will also provide guidance on pre-excavation research, planning an excavation, running your dig, and the all-important post-excavation responsibilities and long-term care of your site archive. There’s helpful videos, hints and tips in every chapter, plus a section to help you dig deeper into each topic.
You can access the course materials from your desktop, tablet or smartphone
What will I learn?
Endorsed by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists and based on the Archaeology Skills Passport, this course is tailored to teach you the end-to-end process of actually doing archaeology. How do you get started? What happens on site? What do you need to do after the trenches are closed and you’re done in the pub? We’ll explain:
What happens before excavationhow to locate and identify archaeological sitesthe different stages of an archaeological projectwhat happens in pre-excavation planning and researchwhat should be included in an archaeological Project DesignWhat happens during excavationhow to set up a trenchwhich tools to use, and what techniques are best practicehow to identify and recording what you findhow to recover artefacts and take environmental samplesWhat happens after the digging is finishedanalysis of the data and archaeological materialsinterpretation of the sitemaking the archaeological record accessiblewhat to do with an archaeological archiveHow does it work?
This six week course begins on the course start date at the top of the page – that’s when we’ll unlock your first chapter, and send you details of how to login.
After that, we’ll unlock a new chapter every Tuesday, and nudge you when it’s ready. You can do your chapters in bite-sized chunks, or in one whopper weekend sitting – whichever you prefer! At the end of each one, you’ll be able to prove your newfound knowledge in a quick quiz.
To help you along the way, we’ve also set up a Facebook Study Group for everyone on the course – it’s where you can say hello to your fellow classmates, discuss what you’re learning together, share your ideas and even call on the DigVentures team for help. It’s entirely optional, but we recommend joining – it will help you get the most out of the course!

Time Team's Helen Geake on Metal Detecting
Once upon a time, archaeologists were against metal detecting and frowned upon it. Today, things are completely different and many now see detecting (and detectorists) as allies in the pursuit of uncovering the past.
This fascinating talk by Time Team's Helen Geake looks at what changed their minds, and why so many now embrace it.
It's showing tonight on our YouTube channel and is the perfect Sunday treat.

The £2million centrepiece of Henry VIII’s lost crown found under tree after 400 years
Paul Sims 29 Jan 2021, 21:30Updated: 30 Jan 2021, 7:20
The centrepiece of Henry VIII’s lost crown has been found under a tree by an amateur treasure hunter.
Kevin Duckett ended a 400-year-old mystery when he dug up the solid gold figurine in a Northamptonshire field.
The long-lost piece of the Tudor monarch's jewel-encrusted crown was found by an amateur metal detectorist
The 2½in-high, inch-wide piece, one of five on the Tudor crown, is now at the British Museum and could be worth £2million. Experts say the find is one of the most significant by an amateur.
The 500-year-old solid gold centrepiece of Henry VIII’s lost crown has been unearthed in a field
Thrilled Kevin, 49, unearthed it near Market Harborough and said: “At first I wondered if it was a crumpled foil dish from a 1970s Mr Kipling product, or even a gold milk bottle top. “I’d been there about 20 minutes and found nothing. “Then I got a very loud positive signal from my detector and started to dig down before spotting something. “It was lodged in the side of a hole just a few inches down. “I carefully removed it and knew by its colour and weight that it was solid gold. “I brushed off the soil and sat down in amazement. “The rush of adrenaline and the buzz of excitement started to flow through my body. “I was holding what appeared to be a heavy solid gold and enamelled figurine.”
Historians feared the relic was lost for good when Oliver Cromwell abolished the monarchy in 1649 and beheaded Charles I. Cromwell ordered the 7lb 6oz crown, valued by the then Parliament at £1,100, to be melted down, minted and sold as coins. Its 344 precious stones were sold separately while other parts of the crown were passed on intact never to be seen again. Kevin took his find home to Fleckney, Leics, cleaned it up and contacted his find liaison officer before starting his own research. He was certain the figure was of Henry VI, later proclaimed a Saint.
Kevin discovered SH — Saint Henry — inscribed on the bottom. By chance he had read an article detailing how Henry VIII altered his crown during his 36-year reign. Its five fleurs-de-lys — the decorative lily linked to royalty — were originally adorned with three figures of Christ, one of St George and one of the Virgin and Child.
Henry VIII removed the figures of Christ and replaced them with three saint kings of England: St Edmund, Edward the Confessor and Henry VI. He wore the crown at his 1509 coronation and when he married Anne of Cleves, the fourth of his six wives, in 1540. The headpiece was later used at the coronations of his children, Edward, Mary and Elizabeth, and then of James I and Charles I.
'SHEER EXCITEMENT'
Crucially, Charles I was stood with the crown in a 1631 portrait by artist Daniel Mytens. Charles fled Cromwell after the Battle of Naseby in 1645 and travelled the route where Kevin found his treasure. It is possible it became detached as Charles escaped, or he buried it to keep it from Cromwell.
In 2012, experts at the Historic Royal Palaces used the Mytens painting to create a replica of the crown and put it on display at Hampton Court Palace. Kevin said: “I’d seen the replica on YouTube and the tiny figures on the fleurs-de-lys but I couldn’t be sure. “I headed to the palace to find out. “I’ll never forget the sheer excitement as I got closer to the Grand Hall where the replica sat in all its glory. “I entered the room and my figurine’s identical twin was staring right at me.” Kevin, a detectorist for 20 years, said: “I’m very proud to have rediscovered it for the world to enjoy and study.
“Henry VIII is one of Britain’s most iconic kings.”
Lucy Worsley, chief curator at Historic Royal Palaces, said: “It’s great news that after centuries of subterranean slumber this little golden figure has been revealed once more. “It is tantalising to imagine its true history.”
Kevin’s find on the left compared to the one featured on the replica crown
The British Museum is continuing to research the piece. If verified, Kevin must offer it for sale to a museum at a price set by an independent board. The full story is featured in next month’s Treasure Hunting magazine.
Editor Julian Evan-Hart said: “It’s an extraordinary find. The case is pretty much cut and dried. All that’s required now is some form of official confirmation.”

Geweldige vondst!
Wie verwacht er nou echt iets van zulke historische waarde op zo'n praktisch willekeurige plek te vinden?
Hier is een filmpje over hoe in 2012 een replica is gemaakt van deze Tudor kroon, inclusief de drie heiligen. Het zijn best wel kleine figuurtjes eigenlijk.
