Between stories about prehistory or the Gallo-Roman era and the way of life of women and men of the past, scientists and an artiste associate.
A scientific and artistic approach
After a quick introduction to the history of the Château de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, Romane Chapelot and Arthur Mouquet, the founders ofArcheologosdistribute shovels, brushes and buckets for the start of the search.
The children start to dig up coins, Gallic bronze jewelry or even bones. These are objects reconstituted from real materials, for an effect of verisimilitude.
While these two mediators recreate the conditions of an excavation, Clara Baum focuses on the children’s feelings :
“What I want is to make them formulate what an object evokes in them. These are objects that do not belong to our modern times so there is a real work of their imagination. »
His workshops revolve around the figure of the bull of Knossos and the myth of the Minotaur.
Scientific and artistic prisms combine to allow a complementary learning.
Reconnect with history during the holidays

This program like a lot. “We have a lot of children who come back to do the other workshops. explains Arthur d’Archéologos.
