A Course in Experiential Archaeology at an Archeopark as a Part of Active University Education

Abstract

As with any other science, archaeology constantly adopts new methods and trends over time. University education in the field can be very helpful advancing sciences in every country. This type of education influences the early stages of future top scientists and forms their future careers. Therefore, education should reflect not only scientific innovations but also innovative educational methods. In archaeology we do not often incorporate such an approach. We all know from our own experiences, though, that playful diversions can bring positive results, regardless of the students’ age.
