Summary

Archaeology offers tremendous opportunities for involvement, alongside another career or a career in itself. It is never too late to become involved in archaeology, and children grasp the inherent pleasures of the subject as well as any adult – who does not like a pursuit that so uniquely combines both mental and physical exercise? Archaeology transcends borders and cultures, languages and dialects, social and economic divisions – anyone, anywhere can become involved in archaeology if they wish to, and the opportunities to become involved improve all the time. All that involvement requires is your own decision to become an active participant – and if you are reading this book, you have already taken that decision. Here, then, are some suggested second steps.
