ÂÌñÒùÆÞ ANNUAL MEETING

DC Day of Archaeology 2025

This past Saturday, June 28, ÂÌñÒùÆÞ was pleased to participate in the annual DC Day of Archaeology Festival organized by . With 15 organizations and over 300 participants, the event gathered archaeological organizations around the DMV at the historic Tudor Place in Washington, D.C. for a day of community outreach and sharing of archaeological knowledge. Participants were able to visit the tables of local organizations to learn about a wide variety of archaeological topics and resources.

The ÂÌñÒùÆÞ table included several activities for a variety of ages and knowledge levels, as well as informative posters about our organization and Cultural Heritage Initiatives. For children, we provided a sandbox for digging up ancient Egyptian “artifacts,” and two puzzles of images from the Amphitheatre of El Jem in Tunisia and the statue heads at the hierothesion in Nemrut Dag, Turkiye. We also had copies of Near Eastern Archaeology to give out, as well as ÂÌñÒùÆÞ swag.

ÂÌñÒùÆÞ is proud to once again support a successful DC Day of Archaeology! As part of our mission to make archaeology accessible and engaging for all, we were excited to connect with members of the public, share the latest discoveries, and highlight the importance of preserving cultural heritage. Events like these are vital for sparking curiosity, encouraging dialogue, and inspiring future generations of archaeologists.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by—we loved hearing your questions and sharing in your enthusiasm.
See you next year!
