It’s the 20,000th anniversary of humans’ domestication of the dog (give or take 5,000 years). Join Archaeology in the Community for a celebration of that historic event with a Barkaeology Parade on Saturday, October 5, 2024. Enjoy the beauty of Rock Creek Park in DC, learn more about the archaeology and history of dog domestication, and see extremely good pups. The parade route will follow a short (about 1-mile) trail loop in the woods. Costumes for humans and dogs are welcome and encouraged. Register today!
