Archaeology

Fragments of dishes, shards of pottery, remains and foundations of former buildings hidden underground… A pile of old stuff? Nothing could be further from the truth! These excavated objects, revealed and interpreted by archaeologists, instead become genuine reminders in understanding the way of life of those who came before us. The Fort Chambly site is one of 10,000 sites in Quebec where archaeological digs have taken place.
