ABSTRACT Life in the Roman World (LitRW) is a programme for schools based on research carried out by the School of Archaeology and Ancient History (SAAH) at the University of Leicester (UoL) on Roman-era identities, and large-scale investigation of Roman Leicester by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS). LitRW includes a book and teaching resources which have introduced new non-traditional audiences to the complex, diverse communities of the Roman world through the prism of local heritage. This programme has dramatically increased teacher and pupil engagement with archaeology and classical subjects in state schools in the East Midlands, making Roman-era history, culture and language accessible to c. 9,900 participants, many from disadvantaged backgrounds.

ABSTRACT As digital tools develop and become more openly available, not only archaeologists but also other groups that have an interest in archaeological heritage and the past are taking more and more digital tools and ideas into use in their research and practices. One such group with particular interests in archaeological heritage is hobbyist metal detectorists. Although the hobby has been around in some countries since as early as the 1960s, it is also clear that digital developments – from state-sanctioned infrastructures such as the emerging national finds recording databases, to detectorist adoption of social media platforms for sharing information – are having a profound effect on hobbyists and their knowledge production practices. In this article, we present and discuss our findings from a web focus group that we carried out with metal detectorists from seven different northern and eastern European countries.

There is little evidence about the successful placement of refugees in the labor market and the conditions for successful, needs-covering and sustainable transiti‐ ons into work for this group in Germany.

ABSTRACT In this paper we present a proposal for the creation of a standardized evaluation model for participatory/public/community archaeology and heritage initiatives. The proposal is the result of discussions during a Spring School that the University of Padua and the MAG Museum of Alto Garda, Italy, organized between 9 and 15 April 2018. The Spring School brought together international practitioners to compare experiences and share visions for the sustainable future of archaeology and heritage management. We reflect on the process of bringing together our thoughts and views into one place, and on the theoretical and practitioner contexts that inform our proposed model. The model is intended for researchers and practitioners planning to carry out archaeological and heritage projects with communities. We invite readers to try using some or all of the sections of the model in their own work and to contribute to further refinement of the approach.

ABSTRACT An archaeological identity of the Nambya state in north-western Zimbabwe is attempted by interrogating available oral accounts to determine how monumental stone structures in the region contributed to the development of the historical landscape. The research employs concepts of ‘listening’ to inform the archaeology connected with the state, which is also recalled in the recent histories of the Nambya people. Chronometric dating indicates that the Nambya state developed earlier than previously thought, and a review of the oral accounts indicates very close connections with Great Zimbabwe. It may have been an offshoot of the expansion of the Zimbabwe Culture on the Zimbabwe plateau during the fifteenth century, like the Mutapa state (1400-1900 AD). The clustering of monumental stone structures in north-western Zimbabwe is best informed by oral accounts, which show how royal capitals or palaces, and by extension, state power, shifted from one place to another.

ABSTRACT In 2019, the Ewamian Aboriginal Corporation, together with archaeologists and community rangers, set out to challenge the idea that the Undara lava tubes of Far North Queensland, Australia were places Aboriginal people avoided in the past. Our initial motivation was for Ewamian cultural values to be included in park planning, alongside the natural values. Over 12 months, a team of archaeologists and community rangers conducted surveys in Undara Volcanic National Park and carried out a small test pit excavation at Darcy Cave. So far, we have surveyed 15 tubes, 12 containing cultural material, and found evidence of at least 1000 years of human occupation. Our research demonstrates the value and challenges of Indigenous archaeologies in an under-investigated part of northern Australia.

ABSTRACT This paper reports on CHICC: a community archaeology project funded by Horizon 2020 (2021–2023). CHICC (Culture, Heritage, Identity: impacts of Climate Change) explores the impact of heritage upon climate communication and action in the project areas of Denmark, Ireland and Scotland. The citizen science methodology involves working with communities to co-create digital presentations or ‘deep maps’ of heritage sites at risk from anthropogenic climate change. The early results of this unrestricted co-creation include the community’s deeper understanding of their local heritage and its relationships to climate change, which can be a provocation for climate action.

ABSTRACT Manchester Centre for Public History and Heritage has developed community archaeology projects with marginalized communities, and within areas where archaeology is often disregarded, socially, economically, and politically. These projects use approaches based on the co-production of historical and archaeological knowledge, and have ethical implications for academics and participants; projects actively engaging the public in archaeology often do so by linking modern day communities to historical communities, and in this process uncover uncomfortable truths and painful pasts. To explore the issues raised by this work, this paper self and collaboratively reflects on experiences from two contrasting community archaeology projects in the UK and Nigeria. This discusses lessons learnt from these ‘socially engaged’ community archaeology projects, including contentious and unanticipated aspects that arose in the field, and such issues as dealing with conflicting values, ensuring long-term sustainability, supporting duty of care, and understanding psychological and emotional risk.

ABSTRACT This paper reviews the aims, context, approach and early outcomes of a new transnational participative archaeology project focussed on rural village communities. ‘Community Archaeology in Rural Environments Meeting Societal Challenges’ (CARE-MSoC) includes three European countries where participative community archaeology is new- the Czech Republic, the Netherlands and Poland. CARE-MSoC aims to explore the feasibility, value and impact of excavation by rural residents within their home communities by using a method which can be deployed anywhere and which in the UK has been shown to advance knowledge of the past while also delivering a wide range of social and heritage benefits: multiple test pit excavation within inhabited villages. Data presented here from the Czech Republic, the Netherlands and Poland show the activity to be popular and effective here in benefitting people while also attracting, sustaining and growing local interest in heritage participation in all three countries.

ABSTRACT In this article, we discuss a possible future for community-based archaeology in Pakistan. Specifically, we focus on a site survey conducted at Nather-jo-Daro and the ways through which community concerns entered into our process. The lack of archaeology in the educational curriculum at all levels and the lack of education in many rural parts of Pakistan are two key issues that become apparent in our work. We end with recommendations on how to move forward and how to create a more community-based programme that can address these concerns around education.
