Program Information
As time capsules, shipwrecks like the Titanic provoke our imagination. Underwater archaeologists interpret sunken artifacts, such as clothes, dining menus, and mariners’ compasses, to tell us how ships were built, why they sank, and the stories of people from the past. In this program, mock digs and artifacts provide children the chance to piece together stories just like archaeologists. Don’t forget to reach out to local museums or colleges to reach archeologists who might be able to give a presentation about local artifacts. Activities inspired by Luz Mejia-Ramos at the Pasadena Central Library and the San Diego Archaeological Center.
Suggested runtime: 90 min.
