Mike Schiffer has asked me to forward an interesting request for him
relating to historic archaeology work. Any thoughts would be greatly
appreciated. His email is: [log in to unmask] (mailto:[log in to unmask])
I will also forward any responses about this on the listserv to him.

Dear Colleague:
I am currently working on a new project that seeks to pull together
archaeological studies of people, places, and organizations where
scientific activities were (or are) conducted. This includes
ethnoarchaeology of laboratories (like Latour's famous study of the
Salk Institute), and excavation of sites and surveys of regions (such
as Beck's study of the Nevada Test Site). I have found that this topic is
difficult to research, but I suspect that historical archaeologists would
be most likely to have conducted, or know of, such projects.
I hope you can help me by giving me directions to (or pdfs of)
relevant archaeological reports or even dim recollections of a project you
once heard about in a bar.
Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide.
Sincerely,
Mike
