"To bring together individuals interested in
the study and promotion of archaeology"
-- NSAS Constitution

Welcome to our Web Site

The Nova Scotia Archaeology Society was formed in 1987 in response to a growing interest in the Province's heritage resources. It is our mandate to bring together individuals interested in the study and promotion of archaeology, particularly as it relates to all cultures of Nova Scotia; to disseminate knowledge and encourage the exchange of information among professionals and amateurs alike; and to promote the preservation and protection of archaeological sites and resources throughout the Province.

Information on joining the Society can be found on our Membership Page and info on our monthly meetings, lectures and upcoming activities can be viewed on our Schedule Page.
