Summary

From 1990 to 2010, the Department of Archaeology at Vilnius University played a pivotal role in revitalizing archaeological research and education in Lithuania following its re-establishment after Soviet rule. The department significantly contributed to the field through scientific publications, international collaborations, and educational initiatives, including the launch of the journal Archaeologia Lituana and the expansion of archaeology studies from 10 students in 1993 to 43 by 2010. It also led or participated in national and international projects, such as the digitalization of Lithuanian archaeological sources and landscape development studies, while fostering fieldwork opportunities at key sites like Kernavė and Trakai. The department's efforts included organizing regular conferences, engaging in Erasmus programs, and hosting foreign scholars, solidifying its position as a leading institution in Lithuanian archaeology.
