Date: Fri, 15 May 2009 07:18:01 -0700
LAMP (the Lighthouse Archaeological Maritime program based at the St.
Augustine Lighthouse) still has a few spots available for our 3-week
maritime archaeological field school in St. Augustine, Florida, from
8 June to 26 June 2009. We are accepting applications until the class
is filled. To apply, please send an email expressing your interest to
Christine Mavrick at [log in to unmask] The 2009
LAMP Field School will focus on the testing of an unidentified
ballast pile to make a determination whether it represents the
remains of the Confederate privateer Jefferson Davis, lost on the St.
Augustine bar in August 1861 after the most successful cruise of the
entire war. Alternate inshore sites will be investigated depending on
conditions offshore. Students will be instructed in scientific diving
procedures, archaeological recording and excavation, the use of
hydraulic probes and induction dredges, marine remote sensing survey
and analysis (magnetometer & side scan sonar), artifact collection
and documentation, and basic conservation laboratory methodology. The
field school will also host an evening lecture series featuring field
school instructors and visiting professionals from various public,
private, and academic institutions throughout Florida. The field
school fee is $800.00 for students taking this course for academic
credit, and $1000 for those who do not wish to receive course credit
. This base fee includes room and board, all diving gear (other than
mask, fins, snorkels, & booties), air fills, local transportation,
and use of LAMP’s research vessels, dive locker, classroom, and
laboratory facilities. Graduate or undergraduate credit may be
available through the sponsoring universities listed below, or
through your own institution if you make these arrangements, at
additional expense for tuition. This field practicum is supported by:
Flinders University, Adelaide, South Australia Plymouth State
University, Plymouth, New Hampshire Syracuse University, Syracuse,
New York Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida. For more
