The Council for British Archaeology
"The CBA works to promote the study and safeguarding of Britain's historic environment, to provide a forum for archaeological opinion, and to improve public interest in, and knowledge of, Britain's past.
It aims to raise the profile of archaeology throughout society, in all parts of the United Kingdom, and strengthen public care for and understanding the historic environment."
Well worth joining as an individual member.
The North Bucks Archaeological Society is affiliated to the CBA. |

The Council for Independent Archaeology
The Council was set up 'to explore and promote ways in which amateur archaeologists and local archaeological societies can contribute more effectively to archaeology, including rescue archaeology'
The Council for Independent Archaeology aims to promote archaeology that is done independently of government money in the belief that independent archaeologists have much to contribute, not only by their labour, but even more by the introduction of fresh ideas and new approaches.
The council is very active in its opinions on the Valetta agreement.

English Heritage's archaeological division
The job of English Heritage is to ensure that the historic environment of England is properly maintained and cared for. They try to employ some of the country's very best architects, archaeologists and historians, in order to help people understand and appreciate why the historic buildings and landscapes around them matter. From the first traces of civilisation, to the most significant buildings of the 20th century, they try to care for every important historic site
The code for this site is pretty flakey and only really runs with Internet Explorer |

The Portable Antiquities Scheme
The Portable Antiquities Scheme is a voluntary recording scheme for archaeological objects found by members of the public. Every year many thousands of objects are discovered, many of these by metal detector users, but also by people whilst out walking, gardening or going about their daily work. Such discoveries offer an important source for understanding our past. |
