> Tidigare utgjorde vi Riksantikvarieämbetets arkeologiska uppdragsverksamhet (UV) men den 1 januari 2015 flyttades verksamheten över till Statens historiska museer (SHMM) och bytte då namn till Arkeologerna. I Riksantikvarieämbetets regi har vi funnits sedan 1950-talet.

So the actual government entity that does field archeology on behalf of the national museums is called Arkeologerna since 2015.
