BOSTON UNIVERSITY
UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY FIELD SCHOOL IN BERMUDA
We are offering a four-week pilot field school program involving research
on an early historic shipwreck within the Bermuda reef area, as part of the
ongoing maritime heritage management program being run by the Bermuda
Maritime Museum. The current dates are from August 6th to September 3rd,
2000. Students will receive 4 credits for CAS AR 503 "Archaeological Field
Methods: Survey and Excavation", upon successful completion of course
requirements. In addition to the normal prerequisites (CAS AR 101 and CAS
AR 102), students will also be required to have valid scuba certification
(e.g, PADI "Open Water"). The wreck site will of course be investigated
within the context of Bermuda's maritime history, as presented in evening
lectures and field trips around the islands, and through specific
discussions of maritime and nautical archaeology theories and practice.
