What do we do?
The Arch and Anth society is a group for social activities, trips, workshops and lab sessions and guest lectures, open to anyone with an interest in Archaeology, History or Anthropology.
Our typical activities include weekly Thursday socials, which have an alternate between Buffalo, Zephyr, and clubbing week on week; movie nights where we book out a lecture hall and watch some archaeological classics like Indiana Jones and The Mummy; and if the weather seems fit we hope to put on some practical workshops to make your own flint tools or experience an authentic roman banguet!
We strive to provide the most insightful and exciting entertainment we can with an equal balance of practical and theoretical activities.
The society provides academic support for Archaeology students and related subjects with society members being a mixture of PAL leaders and more experienced academics allowing for skill sharing and communication across the years, the society intends to be a safe and comfortable space for those who are just as fascinated in the past as we are.
Make friends. Ask for help. Learn alongside us. Have fun.
For any questions about anything please email our secretary via their student email.
