Our Vision 2025 – To Make Archaeology Matter
We want to live in a Scotland where archaeology is for everyone! A place where the study of the past offers opportunities for us now and in the future to discover, care for, promote and enjoy our rich and diverse heritage, contributing to our wellbeing and knowledge and helping to tell Scotland’s stories in their global context.
Scotland’s Archaeology Strategy has been developed by the Scottish Strategic Archaeology Committee, following a consultation in 2015. It is currently under review and an update will be published in 2027.
