The Toronto Society of the
Archaeological Institute of America

Established in 1908

The Toronto Society is one of the oldest of over one hundred
local AIA Societies throughout North America. Local Societies
provide a vehicle for people interested in archaeology to
meet one another, to learn about new discoveries, and to
hear from scholars about their current research.
