ARCHAEOLOGICAL ORGANISATION


The Society was founded in 1780, and its purpose is 'the study of the antiquities and history of Scotland, more especially by means of archaeological research.' A major part of the society's programme is the sponsorship of research, and there are various grants and awards to assist different kinds of work.
