The Portable Antiquities Scheme is a voluntary program in the United Kingdom that encourages the recording of archaeological objects found by the public. It helps to document and preserve archaeological discoveries made by metal detectorists, field walkers, and others. The information collected is used for research and to enhance our understanding of the past.
A synonym for archaeology is "prehistoric studies" or "antiquities research."
Antiquities study focuses on the cultural and historical significance of ancient artifacts and monuments, often within a broader context of art history and conservation. Archaeology involves the scientific study of past human societies through the excavation and analysis of material remains such as artifacts, structures, and ecofacts to reconstruct and understand ancient cultures and civilizations.
