Students will explore archaeology by investigating mysterious objects from an “ancient society,” brainstorming their potential uses. Along the way, they’ll learn key concepts like the law of superposition, archaeological ethics, and great discoveries of archaeologists’ past. In a hands-on excavation, students will uncover hidden items and “ancient snacks”.

What People Are Saying

I loved my experience at Pali. In my time as an instructor, I was able to develop many skills in the classroom as a teacher and as a leader. I would highly recommend this position for anyone who would like to start a career in the Outdoor Education Industry.

Alicia G., Instructor

Thank you so much for an incredible week. The kids are jazzed; parents are more jazzed. Your team is incredible, and the planning and execution for a top notch science/outdoor education/leadership camp is celebrated. We are so glad we found you.

Danielle V., Teacher

Impressive! This is our first time to Pali. I have taken students to four other SoCal science camps and I would highly recommend Pali and plan to return next year.
