Archaeological Collections

Archaeological collections are curated groups of artifacts, fossils, human remains, and other materials recovered from archaeological sites. These collections help researchers study past societies, cultures, and environments by preserving objects like tools, ceramics, jewelry, and bones. They are stored in museums, research institutions, or laboratories with detailed records, allowing scholars to analyze and interpret historical human activity. Proper curation ensures the preservation and accessibility of these items for ongoing study, education, and public displays, ultimately helping us understand our collective history and cultural heritage.
