Bulgaria is a small country in East Europe, neighbouring Greece, Turkey, Macedonia, Serbia and Romania. This region is known to be one of the ancient centers of human civilization and Bulgaria, as a part of it, has much to offer to those who are interested in history and archaeology. There have been many great cultures that inhabited these lands - starting back in prehistoric times when Bulgaria's east coasts were home of the civilization that first produced golden items in the human history, the Thracian kingdoms, the Greek colonies, the Celtic countries, the Roman and Byzantine empires, Bulgarian kingdoms, the Ottoman empire, etc.
Aiming to promote Bulgaria as one of the most interesting countries in the field of archaeology with lots to be unearhetd yet to come, we offer field work opportunities all over the country. Most of the sites open for field work date back to Greek and Thracian, Roman, and Byzantine times. Hands-on experience is a touch with real life of ancient civilizations and culture and a great impetus to discover the origin of nowadays. The boost of tourism emphasizes another aspect of the archaeology i.e. to reveal cultures of ancient epochs, artifacts, lifestyles.
For season 2009 we would like to present the Roman baths in the town of Hisar combined with research of a unique Greek emporion and a neighbouring sanctuary.
