Diving into the Past
This is the story of how we started Diving into the Past. During 2018 we were lucky enough to be involved with Dani Newman (UoS PhD Candidate) to present the Black Sea Maritime Archaeology Project to the public during a variety of festivals and exhibitions across the UK. Then, we met with Josie Love (UoS International Office), who came up with the idea of us applying for the University of Southampton’s Public Engagement with Research funding, and that what we did... We’ve got the funding to carry out an exhibition about underwater cultural heritage sites in Alexandria during the Bibliotheca Alexandrina’s Science Festivity. Where we will be exhibiting about the use of modern technology, science and engineering in recording, preserving and presenting of Maritime/Underwater cultural Heritage. Do come along, bring your little ones, say Hi and enjoy our activities!!! Our exhibition is open for all age groups... We will not stop after the Science Festivity... its just the beginning, follow our accounts on social media, and check our website for more updates. Finally, we wouldn’t be here without the support of our friends and family and our partner institutions... We are open for feed backs, suggestions, and future partnerships... if you have an idea, we would love to hear about it, feel free to contact us: Diving Into The Past: presenting Egyptian Underwater Heritage to the Public - PERu Development Fund 18/19 Project Website: www.divingintothepast.weebly.com Email: [email protected] Facebook: @DivingIntothePast Twitter: @DivingIntoPast
