Using the Archéoville kit, provided by the Yvelinnes’Archaeological Service (SADY), ArkéoTopia leads children and teenagers on a discovery of archaeological digs, a central feature in the voyage through the archaeologist’s universe. Dive into an imaginary Gallo-Roman archaeological site to “dig” through different layers with your hands and uncover walls, graves, cross-sections and more. It’s up to you to recognize using touch and to interpret history. Come and make hypotheses and find out about the researcher’s methods.
