๐ŸŒ Ever thought about doing real archaeology outside the classroom?
Kristy, a BA Humanities and Digital Technologies student from HKU, recently returned from an amazing two-week field trip in Armenia with the #ARTH2110 course โ€” and it was epic. ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿ’ฅ
From digging trenches in the sunshine, finding ancient pottery and obsidian, to chilling with her host family and exploring Armenian culture โ€” it wasnโ€™t just about archaeology, but a completely different way of living. ๐Ÿž๏ธโœจ
She documented the whole journey, and itโ€™s full of early mornings, hands-on discoveries, and some seriously wholesome village vibes. If youโ€™re into the past, culture, or just want a cool summer experience โ€” this is it. HKU students can start signing up for ARTH2110 summer 2026 this week! Read Kristy's full story and maybe youโ€™ll be packing your bags next summer. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Ever wondered what itโ€™s like to dig into ancient sites while exploring breathtaking landscapes? One of our HKU students took HKU Art Historyโ€™s #ARTH2110: Archaeology and Digital Humanities in the Field this summer and went all the way to Armenia for some real-life #excavation, hiking, and exploring!
Her video-log, published by HKUniversty, shows what itโ€™s like to spend two weeks in the field: early mornings, hands-on #archaeology, gorgeous nature, and lots of laughs along the way.......
Check it out to see the full adventure โ€” you might just want to join us next time!
