Getting Involved with Archaeology

If you have an interest in archaeology, you might be wondering how you can get involved with archaeological work, or even how to prepare for a career in archaeology. To lay the groundwork for future involvement in archaeology, there are several other things you can do to continue learning the basics: reading books and articles on archaeology, watching educational videos about archaeology and history, visiting museums with archaeological artifacts (archaeology museums, history museums, art museums), visiting archaeological sites, and eventually volunteering on an archaeological excavation.
