Spanish term or phrase: Trabajo de investigación sobre la arqueología industrial de Galicia
Hola

No estoy segura al traducir este término. Lo que más me preocupa es la preposición que va después de investigación.

Muchas gracias por su ayuda

Un saludo

Patricia, I'm sorry, I hadn't seen that you came up with the alternative wording of Galician industrial archaeology before I wrote out my own answer. My apologies.

  -> thank you!

agree  Kathryn Litherland: Good thinking.

  -> Hi, Kathryn! Hope all is well with you!

agree  teju: Yep. The only one left is: Galicia's industrial archaelogogy research project./I like your suggestion a lot!
19 mins
  -> I thought of another one! Galician industrial archaeology ... ¡Saludos y gracias!

neutral  jack_speak: Hi Patricia, I want to comment that your answer indicates the project is being conducted in Galicia, but the original doesn't say that. The original says that it is a project involving research into Galician industrial archaeology. Two distinct concepts.

  -> Well, I thought about that (and see my comment to Teju above for alternative wording), but wouldn't it be a bit odd to run a project away from the site being explored? Anyway, thanks for sharing your thoughts!
