Check out the entry of Dr Archondia Thanos, Honorary Research Associate and Lecturer at the University of Sydney in our Archaeology Q&As, giving her perspective of archaeology as a career.

“Archaeology examines all aspects of the human condition. That is why it appeals to so many people.

It is a great teacher. The future always seems to have happened before to some degree.”
