Archaeology in Canada: An Introductory Learning Tool

Archaeology is more than digging up an artifact: it involves interpreting its use and connecting it to the bigger picture. Archaeology can help support or disrupt historical narratives, including those related to histories that have been disregarded, purposefully forgotten, or misconstrued. This is particularly important in Canada, where Indigenous experiences and oral histories have often been ignored. This tool explains the role of archaeology in the study of history, showcases important archaeological sites in Canada, and outlines how archaeological practices continue to change over time to better integrate diverse perspectives.
