Creating and sharing knowledge about the human past is what archaeology is all about. Aurelius offers a range of services including talks, workshops, and bespoke training, geared towards creating new understandings of the ancient world and delivering that understanding to diverse audiences.
Learning and research.
Talks and workshops.
Aurelius was founded on the belief that specialist work should not take place in an ‘ivory tower’, but that communities should be empowered to engage with the material remains of the past on their own terms.
Whether you’re interested in ancient pottery, archaeological science, or Roman Britain, Aurelius offers a range of event types to suit the needs of different audiences, and can tailor sessions to the interests and experience of your group.

“Adam was a pleasure to work with throughout the Crafts and Communities project. Adam was able to use his knowledge to engage non-traditional heritage audiences with skill and enthusiasm. He has also delivered excellent training workshops to our volunteers and others working within our store. I’d happily recommend working with Adam on outreach projects or to deliver Roman pottery training to non-specialists.”
