Celebrating Archaeology showcases the rich and varied heritage of Anglesey, from Neolithic tombs and Bronze Age barrows to medieval castles and industrial landscapes. Produced by Gwynedd Archaeological Trust, the booklet explains how archaeologists investigate the past — from chance finds and aerial surveys to excavation and scientific analysis — and highlights some of the Trust’s key discoveries and projects. Designed to inspire public interest and involvement, it provides an accessible introduction to the practice of archaeology and the story of Anglesey’s historic environment.
