Your research
At York, research in archaeology is wide-ranging. Our strengths are in human evolution and prehistory; Roman; medieval; historical and field archaeology; bioarchaeology; digital archaeology; African archaeology; buildings conservation and heritage; and experimental archaeology and artefact studies. Many projects are interdisciplinary, involving collaboration with researchers beyond the Department.
Collaboration is part of our core values. We engage with and impact national and international research communities, policymakers, and the public.
