Master’s archaeology trainee skilled in excavation, fieldwork, and observation, seeking to grow in archaeological research.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Master’s Degree Trainee in Archaeology with a strong academic foundation in History (Hons.). I’m currently pursuing my M.A. (Archaeology) at the University of Calcutta, where my focus has sharpened around understanding early contexts through disciplined field approaches.
In May 2023, I worked as a Master’s Degree Trainee for excavation at Bahiri-East, Medinipore District (West Bengal). The excavation was conducted under the University of Calcutta, and the site was identified as an Early Historic coastal site in Eastern India, dated to 3rd Century B.C.E.
I bring “Excellent Communication Skills,” “Strong Knowledge of Fieldwork,” “Observational Skills,” and “Collaboration and teamwork.” I’m motivated by careful observation, respectful collaboration, and turning field findings into meaningful archaeological understanding.
