ARCHAEOLOGIST FOR A DAY
This was, by far, the best experience that we had on our trip to Rome!

About
Gruppo Archeologico Romano is an association of volunteering for the natural and cultural heritage born in 1963 from an idea by Ludovico Magrini to safeguard and enhance our territory. The activities of the association include: Archaeological research (excavations and documentation of materials); Training with specific courses; Learning through guided visits; Travels for cultural education.
Project
We will go to the Villa of the Colonnacce, an important archaeological site just at the gates of Rome, to discover how the professional archaeologist works. Here we will begin with a guided tour of the site where we will learn about the daily life of the Romans to then instruct ourselves on the techniques used for intervention, in order to be prepared for the excavating experience.
Reviews
Perfect from beginning to end. Claudio was an excellent teacher, mentor and cook. We learned a great deal about the Villa and were so excited by the adventure that we followed up the next day at museo nazionale Romano/Palazzo Massimo to see even more of the finds. To add to the fun, I found a piece of a fresco and our granddaughter found the first pieces of a mosaic floor.
