The Federation Archaeology Council was a Federation organization of archaeologists.
A symposium was held by the council each year. In 2367, it was held on board the USS Enterprise-D orbiting Tagus III. Captain Jean-Luc Picard was to be the keynote speaker. Renowned names in archaeology, such as Switzer, Klarc-Tarn-Droth, or McFarland were due to be in attendance.
When asked by Jean-Luc Picard whether she was a member of the council, Vash vaguely replied with "more or less". (TNG: "Qpid")
Vash's answer could refer to her suspension from the Daystrom Institute Archaeological Council.
