The Day of Archaeology is an annual, 24-hour, international online event in which archaeologists and those in related fields write blog posts about their work.
It was inspired by the Day of Digital Humanities[1] and, similarly, allows practitioners of many kinds, to document their work informally and 'provide a window into the daily lives of archaeologists from all over the world'.
[1] The main site runs a customised WordPress content management system and the event is promoted through Twitter and Facebook pages (see External links).
L-P Archaeology and the UCL Centre for Digital Humanities provide technical and management advice.
[4] The project covers any form of work that could be considered archaeology and encourages contributions from any level of professionalism.
