Archaeology in Historic Preservation
June 28-30, 2012 |
Archaeologists are not often integrated into historic preservation teams, and archaeology itself is all too often seen as an “extra” in historic preservation efforts, only undertaken if it is required by law or if archaeological deposits are already known to exist. This course provides an introduction to archaeology that demonstrates the kinds of information archaeologists can bring to an historic preservation project, the value of having an archaeologist on an historic preservation team, and the time and money that can be saved by integrating archaeological research into an historic preservation project from the start. The course will involve lectures, discussions of students’ current or recent projects, hands-on work with archaeological objects, and visits to nearby archaeological sites.
