Archaeology in Romania - 2 week volunteering 'taster'

Our archaeology programme in Romania is based around the historic towns of Alba Iulia and Bourdosani in Transylvania, considered to be an area of huge archaeological importance. Artefacts dating to 4000 BC have been found as well as Greek, Roman and Dacian remains. It is a region steeped in history and volunteers will be able to join some of the many excavations taking place.

The work you will be involved in is very varied. There will be opportunities to help on an archaeological dig, and to assist with the restoration of a medieval church. Other tasks involve cleaning pottery, visits to museums and recording items found during digs.
