What is Goulandris Museum

The main research question of this chapter focuses on how archaeology as a science in secondary education could work as a doorway for cultural approach between the European students. How can the archeological practices conduce to the promotion and understanding of archeological culture and heritage among students in Europe? This subject is examined in the case study of the archaeological park of Archeon in Alphen aan de Rijn in the Netherlands. Under the perspectives of community archaeology and the context of Archeon, the research presents a short analysis of its school programs and their intentions, addressing educational and cultural purposes as an example of community archaeology in order to approach the public and its cultural awareness. Hence, the main aim of this chapter is to explore the possibilities of a more collaborative archaeology in the Netherlands and to promote suggestions for future approaches.
