Our team of professional archaeologists provides reliable cultural resource management services. Based in qathet, BC, we primarily service the upper Sunshine Coast, including Powell River, Savary Island, Lund and Texada Island.
We also serve the lower Sunshine Coast — covering Sechelt, Gibsons, Madeira Park, and Pender Harbour — as well as the lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. With our expertise and commitment, clients can trust us to deliver comprehensive archaeological consulting tailored to the unique needs of each project across these regions.
We’ll guide you through the process
We collaborate with a wide range of clients, offering tailored services to meet their specific needs. Whether your project involves surveying a forestry cut block, building or renovating a home with archaeological considerations, or planning a commercial or industrial development, we are prepared to support you every step of the way.
For each project, we provide clear timelines, detailed steps, and transparent cost estimates. Our goal is to ensure you have all the information you need to proceed confidently, regardless of the project type.
Ardea acknowledges that we live, work, and play on the traditional territories of the ɬaʔamɩn (Tla’amin) , shíshálh (Sechelt), ƛoʔos (Klahoose), k̓ómoks (Comox), and χʷɛmaɬkʷu (Homalco) Nations.
We recognize the ongoing impacts of colonialism and are committed to our own learning and unlearning while courageously working towards decolonization and indigenization through truth, healing, celebration and reconciliation.
