Wissenswerkstatt Archäologie

In the organizer's words:

How do archaeologists actually know how old an object is and what purpose it served? In the Archaeology Knowledge Workshop, you can discover the oldest exhibits in Bremen and learn about how archaeologists work.

A short animated film introduces the exhibition and shows how the objects get from the site to the museum. The exhibits are presented at themed tables and the information can be called up using touchscreens. In addition to age, origin and the history of the find, a lot of other interesting information is provided. How can you tell whether a man or a woman was buried? Who does an object found by chance actually belong to?

The exhibition also includes the neighboring sciences of anthropology, archaeozoology, botany, pollen analysis, dendrochronology and geology with their methods.
