Hello all (and apologies for cross posting),
The Department of Anthropology at the University of North Dakota invites
students to attend its Archaeological Field School in June and July,
2006. The course is being offered in cooperation with the National Park
Service. Field school students will participate in excavations at the
Elbee Site (32ME408), an earthlodge village located within the Knife
River Indian Villages National Historic Site. A geophysical survey of
the site will be performed to identify subsurface features that will be
targeted by our excavations. Field school students will learn standard
archeological field techniques, such as proper excavation methods,
record keeping, site mapping via digital means (GPS, total station) and
by paper, profiling and soil descriptions, photography, and so on.
The field school can be taken as a four or six week course. Students
will receive four or six semester hours of undergraduate credit in
Anthropology 380, Field Techniques in Archaeology (one credit hour per
week of participation). The application deadline is April 15, 2006.
Enrollment is limited so please apply early.
Additional information is available on our website:

Thank you for your time, and please pass this on to your colleagues and
students who might find this of interest.
Best regards,
Mike Jackson
