Invitation for students to participate in a summer game during the field research

Dear Students,

We are pleased to invite you to participate in a game aimed at promoting the field research conducted by our Faculty.

We encourage you to record short videos of the fieldwork you participate in during your field exercises and submit them to Katarzyna Pyżewicz (k.pyzewicz@uw.edu.pl). The videos will be featured on the social media of the Faculty of Archaeology. Each recording should receive the approval of the instructors conducting the research (we will contact them directly to confirm approval).

Submissions will be accepted from the end of June until September 15. We are excited to announce that prizes will be awarded to those whose videos receive the highest number of likes across our Faculty’s Facebook and Instagram pages.
