DIG: An Archaeological Adventure
DIG is an educational resource in York, England, which aims to increase understanding of archaeology and related matters. DIG is owned and operated by York Archaeology, a division of York Archaeological Trust, a registered charity. It is based in St Saviour's Church, one of York's medieval churches, which became redundant in the 1950s and was acquired by the Trust in 1975. Between 1990 and 2005, the building was called the Archaeological Resource Centre. In April 2006, supported by £746,000 of National Lottery funds via the Millennium Commission, it reopened as DIG. Activities in which visitors can engage include:

Discovering techniques used by field archaeologists
Investigating scientific techniques used by archaeologists
Finding out about current archaeological digs and viewing recent finds
