"Digging for Fun and Profit": Commercialization of Archaeology in Mass
Media
The Impact of Cable TV on Archaeology's Image
Two recent television series have thrust archaeology's image into the
public domain in ways that have been roundly criticized in traditional
archaeological circles. These programs have called attention to the mercenary
aspect of digging for dollars and raise serious ethical concerns. While the
professional community's response has been strong and pointed, will their voice
be heard beyond a cloistered circle? What are the ethics behind the
indignation felt by many professionals and can they unequivocally claim the moral
high ground? Today's program explores the many facets of archaeological
ethics and underscores the disconnect between the professional community and
the interested public. The panel includes prominent archaeologists in the
public eye who consider strategies to promote archaeology's image through
the powerful prism of mass media.

Indiana Jones: Myth, Reality and 21st Century Archaeology
This show targets an audience interested in archaeology. It explores
myths surrounding this exotic, often misunderstood field and acquaints
listeners with the contemporary practice of unearthing the human past. Themes
range from Dr. Schuldenrein’s own “Indiana Jones”-like adventures in the land
of the Bible to his team’s archaeological forensics effort to unearth
Kurdish mass graves in Iraq. That undertaking helped convict Saddam Hussein in
2006. Topical issues contribute to the evolution vs. creationism
controversy based on updated fossil records and innovative DNA studies. An episode
highlights the main funding source for archaeology in the U.S. (Hint: the
oil and gas industry). Experts reveal the latest high-tech approaches to
buried archaeological landscapes that provide clues to understanding climate
change, past, present and future. Indiana Jones: Myth, Reality and 21st
Century Archaeology is broadcast live every Wednesday at 3 PM Pacific Time
on the VoiceAmerica Variety Channel _Learn More »_
