The university of Mumbai is all set to host a group of history buffs tomorrow. With a mock trench dug up right opposite the health centre building, the Kalina campus is sure to abound with archaeologists and curious students alike.

The Centre of Extra Mural Studies at the university has declared December 10 as Archaeology Day in the hope of popularising archaeology. “The idea is to spread awareness about the subject. We want to introduce students to the various branches of archaeology, job opportunities, and so on,” explains Kurush Dalal, assistant professor of Archaeology, Centre for Extra Mural Studies (CEMS), University of Mumbai.
