Our BA in Archaeology and History merges historical exploration with hands-on archaeological education. You'll analyze historical developments within their political, social, and cultural frameworks while learning to interpret physical artifacts that reveal our ancient heritage, tracing back to early hominins. The history component spans the past millennium across diverse regions including Britain, Europe, Africa, the Americas, the Middle East, and South Asia. You'll engage with various historical materials - from written documents and artworks to photographs, films, and oral histories.
By combining these disciplines, you'll gain a comprehensive perspective on human civilization. The program teaches you to weigh textual historical accounts against tangible archaeological evidence, offering deeper insights into past societies.
