Kids Submission Guidelines and Contests for DIGAt DIGTM, we always love to hear from you! Check out our submission guidelines and contests for DIGTM, listed below, or send us your stories about how archaeology has changed your life. Don't forget about our Ask Dr. DIGTM feature, where a real archaeologist will answer your questions about digging in the field, pyramids, bog bodies - anything you've been wondering about! A DIG Extra!
In the May/June 2010 issue of DIG, "On the Move." we explored what archaeology has to tell us about the ships, donkey caravans, chariots, roads-and much more- people have used throughout history to travel from place to place. And in our March 2009 issue, we explored the mysteries of early Ireland. As a special treat for DIG readers, we've posted on our Web site an extra article that links these two topics. Click here and read all about roads in ancient Ireland and the controversy they're creating today. DIG and Dinos!
