Massachusetts Archaeology Month–October 2024

2024 marks the 32^nd annual Massachusetts Archaeology Month in October. We will add events during the month to this page as they become available.

In the meantime, look into your local museums, historical societies, and other cultural institutions. Many of these organizations across Massachusetts offer online programs and content throughout the year.

You can also use our online content to explore archaeology in Massachusetts, such as the Archaeology Resources for Teachers, which includes links to museums, websites, books, and other resources.
