Hi all, I need to replace a couple of last minute dropouts:
 
   
Help  Wanted 


Fort Johnson Fieldwork 


November 13 - December 8,  2007 


Full Time or Part Time Field  Technicians 




Fort Johnson is on James Island, in  Charleston, SC. It was first fortified 
in 1708, and served a joint military /  public health role until the end of the 
Civil War. It continued to serve as a  Quarantine station until the mid 20th 
century. It was given to the  state in the 1950s and since then it has been a 
research and educational  facility with participation by the College of 
Charleston, Medical University of  SC, the state Department of Natural Resources, 
NOAA and others.  


A new lab and classroom facility is  being built in a moderately sensitive 
area. We'll be excavating the interior of  two cisterns, exploring a midden 
deposit dating to the War of 1812 era,  monitoring the removal of a modern storage 
building and documenting underlying  features from a 1934 building, and 
stripping fill from the building footprint  and excavating any underlying features 
such as wells and privies.  


Fieldwork will be conducted on a  Tuesday to Saturday schedule to allow 
student and public participation.  Qualified field techs, and trainees are 
encouraged to apply. Part time positions  are available for students. Volunteers are 
welcome.
