Unearthed 2026 Series: Less is More? Sustainability & Significance in Archaeological Collections

May 21 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 pm
Free

Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority (PAHSMA) holds extensive archaeological material generated though decades of excavation. Past approaches to collection management, however, has separated it from broader collection systems, limiting accessibility and obscuring its significance within the wider organisational context. In recent years, PAHSMA have been advancing a more integrated, whole-of-collection approach that brings archaeological material into alignment with established collection management regimes.

This talk is presented as part of National Archaeology Week 2026.

Thursday 21 May, 10:30 am – 11:30 am
Online
Anyone can view and join.
