Abstract
Looking for an introduction into the relationship between archaeology and video games? Join us for a brief look at how archaeology has influenced video games over the years, from Tomb Raider to Assassin’s Creed. I will also explore how video games have begun to influence the practice of archaeology in the field and in online spaces. Come learn about ways archaeology and video gaming can be mutually supportive, especially in meeting public archaeology goals.
