Once objects have been studied, they are taken to the restoration and conservation laboratory to prepare them for exhibitions.

After being removed from the ground, artifacts have to be preserved and restored, but they mainly require cleaning.

00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,000
The treatments applied to objects in the lab depend on the materials the objects were made from.

00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:36,000
Not all of the artifacts in the archaeological collection will be conserved and restored. We will treat only those that will be part of the exhibition at the Musée des Abénakis.

To become a conservator-restorer, you do not have to study archaeology, but physics and chemistry and do a master’s in the conservation and restoration of objects.
