EXPLORATOR is a free weekly newsletter bringing you the latest news of
archaeological finds, historical research and the like. Various on-line
news and magazine sources are scoured for news of the 'ancient world'
(broadly construed: practically anything relating to archaeology or
history up to World War II or so is fair game) and every Sunday they are
delivered to your mailbox free of charge!
