The 2024 #AskAnArchaeologist Day will take place on Friday 19 July - get your questions ready!
#AskAnArchaeologist Day on X (formerly Twitter) is an official part of the CBA Festival of Archaeology and is a chance for people from all over the world to ask archaeologists questions and an opportunity for archaeologists to share their knowledge.
Anyone with access to X (formerly Twitter) can ask a question using the #AskAnArchaeologist hashtag and any archaeologist who has an answer is encouraged to respond. You can also follow the official #AskAnArchaeologist Day account @AskAnArchDay where the Festival team will be sharing some of the day's top posts and keeping you up to date with opportunities to put your questions to some of the UK's leading archaeologists.
There’s nothing too formal about the day and there's no such thing as a silly question – whatever you want to know about archaeology, ask away and someone will (hopefully) know the answer. Since the event began in 2018, people from all over the world have taken part with lots of fascinating questions and discussions taking place.
For more information take a look at our FAQ page.
That’s it really! In the meantime, spread the word and get thinking of questions (or polishing up your answers).
