Cambridge University's Department of Archaeology will be exhibiting at Hills Road Sixth Form College's Big Biology Day on Saturday 11 October 2025. It is a free event for visitors to get a hands on experience of what biology is all about!
Join the team from the Department of Archaeology to find out about how biology is used in archaeology. You will have the opportunity to get hands on with some skulls casts to discover how humans changed through time and compare modern food plants to their ancient counterparts under the microscope.Participants

- as a research facilitator of the Department of Archaeology, supporting the work of Department staff, postdoctoral fellows and students
- as an interdisciplinary centre for archaeology in Collegiate Cambridge, serving staff in a variety of divisions, faculties, museums and colleges (affiliation enquiries and applications should be sent to the McDonald Administrator)
- as a postdoctoral research institute within the Department of Archaeology. In this role the Institute independently supports archaeological fieldwork, other archaeological research, research fellows, visiting scholars, conferences and publications
