Bangladesh is very proud of its glorious tradition. For more than two and a half thousand years, different populations, ruling classes, and numerous buildings, cities, palaces, castles, temples, mosques, Bihar stairs and tombs have been built in this country. Although most of these traditions are of late, there is a marked number of cultural symbols still in the remote areas of this country which are well known as archaeological patterns. The Department of Archeology is engaged in the renovation, research, archaeological excavation and research of the country's antiquities in the light of the Antiquities Act-1968 (Amendment-1976). Apart from this, there are 19 archaeological museums under the department. Archaeological remains are being displayed through these museums. This department preserves and exhibits the revision of history and the renowned architectural structure through the discovery of ancient culture symbols scattered in remote areas of the country. Through the exhibition of various museums of the country, local and foreign visitors, students and researchers are well-versed in the history and heritage of the country. Currently there are 451 preserved archives under the Directorate. Among them are very important archeology of Mahasthangarh, Mainamati, Paharpur Buddhist Bihar, Sitakot Bihar, Kantaji Temple, Chhota Sona Mosque, sixty Dome Mosque, Vasubihar, Bihar, Barabazar and Lalbagh Fort.
