The open lesson (seminar) on the archaeology of Germany attracted a large number of students interested in the rich historical heritage of Central Europe. The lesson (seminar), led by Sabira Nurbayevna Apasheva, Candidate of Technical Sciences, Professor, provided an in-depth examination of the main aspects and latest achievements in the field of German archaeology, spanning the period from the Paleolithic to the Early Middle Ages. The main topics of the seminar were:

• The Bronze Age and the Celts: a study of burials and fortified settlements, as well as the influence of the Celtic La Tène and Hallstatt cultures on the territory of modern-day Germany.

Close collaboration between archaeologists, historians, geologists, anthropologists, and cultural heritage conservation specialists emphasized the interdisciplinary nature of German archaeology, which allows not only for new discoveries but also for the effective preservation of unique monuments.
