Description:

The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the approaches that anthropologists use to gain knowledge about both the prehistoric and historic past. It is not a course about the prehistory of America but will use examples drawn from the past of both America and Europe to show current archaeological theory and methods. The course considers such topics as methods of survey and excavation, paleo-ecological analysis of prehistoric and historic settlements. Fieldwork experience usually is incorporated whenever the course is offered during a summer session.
