The Universities of Iceland and Hólar are accepting applications to The Archaeological Field School at Hofstaðir, organised in collaboration with The Cultural Heritage Agency of Iceland. The school, which will run from July 14th to August 8th, 2025, will provide students with hands-on instruction and experience in Icelandic archaeology, various field techniques, and post-excavation processes. It also aims to encourage students to develop interests in North Atlantic archaeology, heritage management and how archaeological heritage may be utilised as tourist attractions. Furthermore, it aspires to promote and facilitate research in Iceland by helping students make contacts with relevant researchers and providing advice about potential research projects.
