On excavation in Kazhakstan, walking from the village to the site in the morning, we are passed by 'The Mystery Machine' carrying our tools. We often chose to walk the 30 minutes rather than drive along the bumpy track at considerable speed! Credit: Emily Johnson

This photo competition is open to Institute of Archaeology staff, students and alumni, including those working within the Centre for Applied Archaeology and Archaeology South-East.

Entrants are encouraged to submit a photo that in some way captures an 'archaeological journey', in keeping with the Festival's theme of Journeys. “A Journey encompasses many aspects of archaeology and heritage from travelling to progression, and during this year’s Festival we want to help people discover new journeys and share their own, whether it be physical or psychological, tangible and/or intangible heritage”. See more information on the festival website.
