Archaeology is Amazing

Professor Simon Holdaway leads a team that’s excavating the remains of human settlement on Great Mercury Island. The past is being uncloaked in amazing detail. Thousands of fragmented stones, fish bones, and fire-cracked rocks are combining to build our understanding of human history on the island. New Zealand is one of the last examples where people settled a previously uninhabited land. So ours is an important story to tell on the world stage.
