Attention: Aspiring Archaeologists

A new App, designed in collaboration with Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) archaeologists, Dig Quest Israel, will transform a child’s (ages 7–11) iPhone or iPad into an archaeological tool and let them play games to hone their skills, discover secret meanings, solve puzzles and piece the past together like true archaeologists.  

As they play, kids get a feel for what archaeologists do as they experience the excitement of discovery and the creativity and skills involved in solving mysteries from the distant past.

Players select between two dig sites—each has a unique game that requires using different archaeological skills. At Lod, you clear the dirt to uncover an ancient Roman period mosaic and then play a fast-paced quiz-style game using your smarts and powers of observation to identify and classify the animals and objects on the mosaic.

In the Qumran caves, you discover fragments of the 2,000-year-old Dead Sea Scrolls that you piece together in a puzzle game. Then you scan the scrolls to reveal their text more clearly, mirroring the advanced spectral imaging process performed by the IAA team in the laboratories.

Dig Quest: Israel for iPhone and iPad is now available for free download from the App Store.
