The Achill Archaeology Field School was established to address the very real need for hands-on archaeology training for students of archaeology from around the world. Core components include archaeology methodology, survey and recording procedures, environmental archaeology and introduction to archaeological ceramics.
These are backed up by weekly archaeology lectures provided by Achill Field School staff and visiting archaeologists from NUI Galway and other Irish Universities. A weekly archaeology Field Trip with on-site lectures is held on Wednesday of each week to introduce our students to the wealth of archaeology sites on Achill Island, Achill Beg Island and the Corraun peninsula.
