Every year since 1998, First LEGO League has been challenging students to apply STEM concepts through the creative use of LEGO inspired by different themes.

The 2025/2026 Season is called “Unearthed” and inspired by archaeology.

Because of the volume of requests for information, and in an effort to share multiple perspectives on Connecticut’s archaeology community, the Office of State Archaeology and the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) have drafted a fact sheet and launched a campaign to crowdsource videos.

Families and teams can access these videos at https://www.youtube.com/@CTSHPOArchaeology.

Videos will continue to be added as they come in, so you may want to check the channel for new videos every few weeks!

We also invite folks interested in meeting CT Archaeologists to attend this year’s CT Archaeology Fair on October 4, 2025 at the Eli Whitney Museum.

This is a great place to learn more about archaeology across Connecticut and to meet professionals in the field. More information about this coming soon!
