Archaeology research
Archaeology at Birkbeck has a distinctive concern with the relationship between living communities and the archaeological past. Our strengths include archaeological approaches to architecture and landscape, critical approaches to heritage, archaeological archives, graffiti and photography. Staff lead projects in Armenia, Scotland, the Middle East, South America and South East Asia.
Birkbeck was ranked in the top eight universities in the UK for its history, classics and archaeology research in the 2021 Research Excellence Framework.
