Hello all,
As part of an archaeological ethics course I have been asked to observe and/or participate in an ethical conversation on a listserv, forum, etc. I thought it could be interesting to poll Histarch with a simple, two-part question:

1) What do you think is the single most important ethical concern for archaeologists today?

2) Very briefly, how do you define yourself as an archaeologist? (ie what sector do you work in, etc.)

Your answers will be used only to stimulate discussion in class, and I won’t share any personal or identifying information. Also, please feel free to shoot me an email off-list if you would be more comfortable doing so.

Thanks in advance to those of you who respond,
Ryan
