Shovel, Panama and enthusiasm - to help the lover of history. At the existing excavations, the events of the past go into your own hands, regularly alternating with field porridge. If a child inexplicably lured you sandbox, it's time to sign up for the next archaeological expedition.

Where to look for information about expeditions that recruit volunteers, tells 34travel.me.

Excavations often require special skills or experience, but a well-constructed visit will endure a layman, for whom the main rule is “just do not make it worse”. Archaeological tourism requires strict coordination from professionals, because any wrong breath in the direction of an artifact can turn an ancient shard into a pile of dust.

The role of such distributors was taken on by international organizations, thanks to which volunteers have both rules, a manual, and a full base with locations where field work is underway right now.
