Archaeology

Be it wandering among the step pyramids of Teotihuacan or clambering up Mount Parnassus to visit the Sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi, there’s nothing quite as fascinating or uncanny as exploring the places where our ancestors lived, loved and worshipped. The ruins of former civilisations expose the vast differences between their lives and ours, of course – but they also show us ways in which humans haven’t changed much over the millennia. Live out history as you experience the world’s great archaeological sites and see the treasures unearthed there, or volunteer at a dig yourself to play your own part in uncovering the past.
