Professional archeologists learn about people of the past by looking at what they left behind: a broken piece of pottery, leftover clam shells, or an old nail used to join planks in a house. Essentially, trash!
In Trasheology we’ll do archeology on some more modern trash. What clues can we find to figure out who these people are and how they live their lives? Join us to find out!
