Archaeological Techniques and Research Center

     Since 2001, Archaeological Research and Techniques Center, ArchaeoTek- Canada, has offered numerous fieldwork opportunities to students and lovers of archaeology across Europe and North America. Collaborating with museums and academic institutions of our host countries, we have successfully excavated a wide scope of sites ranging from Neolithic to Iron Age in occupation phases, and from sedentary to nomadic and military in nature. Over the years, we have excelled in providing valuable fieldwork opportunities in exciting and affordable learning environments for hundreds staff members, volunteers and students.

       Our projects are of interest to both experienced archaeologists and anyone with a passion for history and archaeology, travel and adventure. As well as earning valuable field experience, our students are taught all of the essential skills of excavation work and basic in-field recording and artifact processing methods. Evenings filled with fun activities always complement our workdays, while weekends of sightseeing and cultural exploration are available to those wishing to journey further into the histories and realities of our host countries.

        2010 field season promises excitement of new discovery. We are thrilled to offer our students an opportunity to continue excavating the Dacian Acropolis of Racos in Southern Transylvania, Romania. This year, we are also planning to have several other survey fieldschools where students will nut only enjoy amazing landscapes, but twill also learn how to use a total station, basic survay techniques, phosphate testing, mapping, etc. We are also planning to have a laboratory season in order to process the finds from over 200 Bronze Age Noua Culture graves.
