🌊🔬 We brought our @ScottishPower-funded Energy through Time project to the Shetland Science Fair!

✨Over 2 days, 250+ students from Shetland schools got hands-on with archaeology workshops, designed water wheels and tackled climate change’s impact on Shetland’s heritage!

@ArchScot brought in some really interesting artefacts from the Stone Age - some of them were 6,000 years old! Our novel ‘Wolf Brother’ was brought to life and we got a good idea of what life was like at that time #activelearning

[Archaeology Scotland Learning Team @as_learn]

Great to share our work with @ArchScot members, staff and trustees at our Members Day & AGM at @themerchantshse

A brilliant talk about the work of veterans at Waterloo from @ProfTonyPollard

And heartening to see text by @SirGeoffPalmer next to the bust of James Ewing.
