Course Description:
In this introductory course, students learn about archaeology through traditional lectures and hands-on, experiential learning techniques. Archaeology is the science of history. In the first part of the course, students learn about the cutting edge techniques that archaeologists use to gather and reconstruct the unwritten histories of past peoples. In the second part of the course, students investigate material histories of our region to understand how written and unwritten histories can differ, sometimes writing out marginalized communities. In this class, you’ll learn how to grapple with complex narratives and identify ways to showcase stories that are too often ignored through social action.
