UNCOVER 'ARTEFACTS' JUST LIKE A REAL ARCHAEOLOGIST
IMPORTANT! Always wear your goggles when digging in the plaster
block!
Always ask an adult where you can set up and
use your kit. Ensure the area is covered with
a sheet and that the work surface is
protected from the tools as they might
cause damage if your hands slip when
digging. Place the plaster block on a clean,
level and solid surface. It may be a good
idea to place a sheet of newspaper
underneath to catch all the plaster you chip
away.
Dig into the plaster carefully with the tools provided.
The hammer and the chisel ends are the most useful for first cuts.
After loosening up the plaster, use the chisel carefully to detach more
plaster. When you start to reveal an 'artefact' make sure you do not
damage it, use gentler strokes and use the pick end to work around
the shape. It will make the dig easier if you use the brush to regularly
sweep away the dust.
It is also a good idea to clean away the loose plaster every so often so
you do not have so much mess at the end of the dig!
When you have completely removed the artefact, you can gently clean
it with the brush and by washing it in a little warm soapy water. If the
plaster is not easily removed try cleaning with an old soft toothbrush
you do not use anymore.
There are seven artefacts to find, so take your time! You do not have
to excavate everything in one day!
ARCHAEOLOGY
Archaeology is the study of human history, dealing with ancient
buildings, objects, human, animal and plant remains. An archaeologist
attempts to uncover proof of human life through excavation of sites
where they believe our ancestors and predecessors lived. This could
mean they dig up human and animal bones and try to age them,
reveal the remains of a settlement or discover the contents of an
ancient tomb! Archaeologists try to explain and help us understand
how we used to live. Everything that is found during a dig is analysed
so that they might tell us about past cultures, such as religious beliefs,
farming and the foods we ate, the homes we built, even how the
human body has evolved.
Despite what some may tell you, archaeology is a surprising and
exciting field! Archaeologists unearth some of the greatest treasures
ever known to humankind in their efforts to discover the past. Take for
example the case of Howard Carter,
an archaeologist who made the discovery of a lifetime back in 1922.
Read on to learn more about his fascinating story.
DISCOVERING KING TUT'S INCREDIBLE RICHES
It's pitch black. His hands trembling, British archaeologist Howard
Carter makes a small hole in the tomb's second door. He inserts a
candle. Next to him, Lord Carnarvon blurts out, "Can you see
anything?" After a moment of stunned silence, Carter replies, "Yes,
wonderful things."
What Carter sees looks like the inside of a giant treasure chest. Gold
gleams everywhere! There are glittering statues, a throne and
fabulous golden beds with posts shaped like the heads of wild
animals. Precious items are heaped all over the room. A mound of
chariot parts fills one corner.
It has taken five years of digging in Egypt's Valley of the Kings – a
graveyard for ancient Egypt's richest kings – and £250,000 (in today's
money) of British millionaire Lord Carnarvon's cash, but Cartel has hit
the jackpot. He has discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun (often called
Tut for short). Tut had become pharaoh at age nine and died just ten
years later around 1323 B.C.
Carter, Lord Carnarvon and two others enter the cluttered first room,
which they call the antechamber. Under a bed with posts in the shape
