The Broken Mammoth site, with its basal component dated to nearly 14,000 calendar years ago, is one of the oldest archaeological sites in Alaska and North America. The site is unique in Alaska for its excellent preservation of bone and other organic materials, including mammoth ivory tools and bones of late Ice Age megafauna, as well as small mammals, birds, and fish. The presence of numerous features, including extensive hearths, lithic workshops, and bone concentrations also makes the site unique. Students have an opportunity to learn fundamental excavation techniques, stratigraphic profiling, mapping, and archaeological field lab cataloging and analysis.

Project Director:

Field School Description: The Field School is investigating landscapes in and around the Village of Deerfield to better understand the long history of human occupation, use and transformation of Western Massachusetts. This year the field school will study a European homelot, the Frary Home/Barnard Tavern in the Village of Deerfield. An early European house was burned in the 1704 raid on Deerfield, then the homelot was used by a series of improving farm families into the late 19th century. One of these families, the Barnards, kept a tavern in the early 19th century. The homelot was bought and restored for the first time by a leader of the Arts and Crafts movement in the late 19th century, restored again when it became part of the museum that presently owns it, Historic Deerfield, Inc. Fieldwork this summer will assist in planning a new installation of the Homelot. The field school is part of a long-term project to document and understand the impacts of capitalist development on everyday life in rural Ne

The field school runs at least eight hours a day, five days a week, for four weeks.

Field School location :Young Ranch (just east of Cochiti lake), NM United States

Project Director:

Field School Description: The UNM Southwestern Archaeological Field School will be held in 2005 in the southern portion of the Jemez Mountains. The Mountains are volcanic in origin with elevations ranging from 6,500 to 11,000 ft. During the field school, students will learn state-of-the-art field archaeological skills that will emphasize recognition and mapping of surface archaeology. As management and protection of archaeological resources have become increasingly important, archaeological fieldwork has moved away from excavation to the research, documentation and protection of the surface archaeological record. Our fieldwork will reflect this changing orientation. Students, however, will also have exposure to excavation method and technique by working with professional archaeological crews at a large site in the Valles Caldera.

Field school web site: http://www.unm.edu/%7Earamenof/public2/web_swfs2005/index_2005.html

Field School Size: 1-15

Specialized skills students will have the opportunity to learn

Tuition: $934.50 undergraduates $1029.50 graduates/non-degree/not enrolled at UNM

Room and Board Information: The UNM field school students will live at the Young Ranch, located just east of Cochiti Lake at the base of the Jemez Mountains. This ranch is located in a beautiful setting in a narrow valley drained by the Rio Chiquito. Because of the location, there are numerous opportunities for hiking and exploring on weekends. Young Ranch was built in the 1920s and is one of the gems of New Mexico architecture. Although there is water and electricity at Young Ranch, there is no phone, and most cell phones do not work in this narrow canyon setting. A public phone is located approximately 20 minutes away.

Transportation: Students are not required to provide their own transportation. The field school will provide transportation to and from work locations, as well as for field trips. We will also ferry students up to Young Ranch and back to UNM at the beginning and end of the field school. Private cars will be necessary for only personal trips.

New Jersey

New Jersey Historical Archaeology Field School

Application Deadline: 06/08/2005 (Month/Day/Year)
Multiple Dates: 2 week and 5 week spans available.
Start Date: 06/13/2005
End Date: 07/18/2005

University, Company, Institution: Montclair State University,
Field School location :New Jersey, Union

Project Director:

Field School Description: Three to six credits -both undergraduate and graduate- as well as non-credit enrollment are available.

The New Jersey field school offers comprehensive field training. This fun and exciting course lets students participate as researchers on a cutting-edge, internationally known research project, while learning archaeological survey, excavation, mapping and more advanced archaeological field techniques, guided by experienced professionals.

Our field school offers very low student/faculty ratios (5-7:1), exciting sites and projects, and experienced staff whose highest priority is the student educational experience. We also offer broad coverage the most interesting and exciting contemporary subjects in archaeology, such as:
- Geoarchaeology
- Culture, class and gender in archaeology
- Cultural resource management - 90% of the archaeological job market
- Site set-up
- Settlement archaeology
- Mapping via Global Positioning Systems, Total Mapping Station, Geographic Information Systems, and more traditional methods
- Architectural history
- How to get a job in archaeology

Of course, we also cover more traditional aspects of archaeological studies such as:
- Excavation techniques
- Ground reconnaissance and intensive survey
- Field work documentation
- Field photography
- Cataloguing, processing and analysis

The New Jersey Historic Archaeology Field School focuses on the cultural landscape and archaeological remains of Union County s Deserted Village - a national register of historic places district nestled within the picturesque Watchung Mountains. The project has generated a long list of scholarly publications by staff and students, and is internationally recognized as a cutting-edge example of a growing trend in historical archaeology focusing on utopian and alternative communities of the 19th century. In 2005, the New Jersey field school will concentrate on completing the excavation of the 18th - mid - 19th century David Felt House, and continuing to explore, map and test poorly known areas of the village. Students provide their own transportation to and from the site every day, and their own
living arrangements.

Professor Tomaso s staff brings a very broad knowledge-base and range of interests and experience to students. Lunch-time lectures and activities on subjects ranging from flint-knapping to the archaeology of the African diaspora help to enrich the field experience at this beautiful and artifact-rich site. Located within driving distance of MSU, students conduct lab work in the CFAS laboratory.

Please visit our web sites and consider applying to one of our field schools for the 2005 field season.

Field school web site: http://www.chss.montclair.edu/archaeology/NJFS.html
Field School Size: 16-25
Minimum age: 16

Prior experience requirements: Volunteers, however, are accepted only by application, and must demonstrate significant experience.

Specialized skills students will have the opportunity to learn

Additional information about optional fields: Our staff and a few quest lecturers cover a range of topics during lunch-time lectures, so we do not really have "evening lectures". The work day for this project is 9AM to 5PM, with a one hour lunch break.

Room and Board Information: Student room and board is the responsibility of the individual student, however, the field school director may be able to help arrange local accomodations given enough advanced notice. MSU also offers temporary summer housing and meal plans which are affordable.

Room and Board cost: See www.montclair.edu and use the search engine.

King Manor

Application Deadline: On going
Start Date: 07/05/2005
End Date: 08/05/2005

University, Company, Institution: Hofstra University,
Field School location :Jamaica, NY, USA

Project Director:

Field School Description: SLAVERY AND FREEDOM IN EARLY NEW YORK

The 2005 Hofstra field school is researching the archaeology of slavery and freedom at the King Manor Site in Jamaica, Queens. Looking for signs of both domination and resistance, we are investigating how these different systems are evident in the artifacts created by household labor. The King Manor site is ideal for this investigation. Its original occupants, the Colgan-Smith family, were s l ave owners in the 18th century. The site was then obtained by Rufus King, a prominent early American politician, known especially for his stance against slavery in the early 19th century. King practiced this belief by using free laborers at his home. Comparing these two households sheds light on the everyday experiences of slavery and freedom that marked the working lives of early Americans living in New York.

King Manor is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is part of New York City's historic house trust. It has been operating as a historic house museum since 1900. The 2005 excavations will be a part of the public interpretation of the King Manor Museum. Students taking the field school will be trained to give site tours, work with the museum's sixth-grade history camp, and reflexively explore their own role in the site's commemoration.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Students will take part in an intensive, hands-on introduction to archaeological field research that provides a foundation in the techniques of archaeological site survey, field excavation and recording, and artifact analysis. The course runs 40 hours a week and involves strenuous daily outdoor activities. Participants must provide their own transportation to the site.

Dixon Hollow

Application Deadline: 04/30/2005 (Month/Day/Year)
Start Date: 05/16/2005
End Date 06/03/2005

University, Company, Institution: St. John Fisher College, New York, USAField School Location: Hemlock, New York USA

Project Director:

Field School Description: St. John Fisher College is offering a summer field school opportunity at the Dixon Hollow site in Hemlock, New York (approximately 30 miles south of Rochester). This site was a middle 19th early 20th century village situated along the Canadice Outlet. The village was occupied by a small number of residents over that time period and was abandoned completely by 1920 after residents sold their land to the City of Rochester. The upcoming field season will focus on 2 residences and a mill which was used to manufacture wool and butter tubs, among other things. Students will have an opportunity to learn surveying, excavation and some lab techniques as well as explore the broader cultural context of the site through field trips to area historical sites. This is only our second year at Dixon Hollow and there are other areas to explore through surveying and subsurface testing in addition to broader excavation.

Field school web site: www.sjfc.edu
Field School Size: 1-15
Minimum age: 18

Prior experience requirements: No experience or coursework required, but an introductory course is archaeology is recommended

Specialized skills students will have the opportunity to learn

Additional information about optional fields: There is a possibility of a weekend fieldtrip (optional) over Memorial Day weekend to see some Ohio Hopewell sites near Chillicothe, Ohio. On rain days, we will also go around to some local historic sites so students can get a picture of how Dixon Hollow fits into the larger cultural context of the time.

Room and Board Information: Unfortunately, Fisher does not offer housing for summer courses. Consequently, off-campus housing must be secured. We will be securing a residence for students either in Lakeville, in a lakeside cottage, or in Geneseo, in a rented house/apartment. Both are optimal places due to their proximity to the site and major highways and the availability of seasonal/student housing. Depending on what we are able to find, the cost could range anywhere from $50 to $300 for the three weeks. Both places would have a kitchen for preparing food. Students should register as soon as possible so that we know how large a house we need. It would be helpful to let me know ASAP if you re planning on registering so I can have an idea of how many students need housing. Transportation must be provided by the student; however, there should be enough students with cars so that getting to and from the site on a daily basis isn t a problem.

Field School Size: 16-25
Minimum age: 18

Specialized skills students will have the opportunity to learn

Room and Board Information: Expect comfortable but relatively primitive living conditions. Students are expected to provide their own camping equipment (personal tents, sleeping bags and pads, etc.). Meals during the ten-day work sessions will be prepared by a professional cook and an assistant. Water, toilets, and field equipment will be provided by the field program. All students will be expected to assist in the daily camp chores required to keep a field camp running smoothly.
We will camp in the ranch complex. Due to the efforts of the diligent US telecommunications industry, cellular phones now sometimes work at the Refuge and, when they don't, the Refuge has a microwave telecommunications link for emergencies. Cellular phones do not work in Range Creek Canyon, although in emergencies we hope to have outside communication through the grid of Bureau of Land Management repeaters. For safety reasons, students are discouraged from bringing personal vehicles to the field.

The course will consist of four 10-day work sessions separated by 4-day breaks. One or two vehicles will return to Salt Lake City at the beginning of each break; students have the option of staying in camp or going to Salt Lake City. Students choosing to remain in camp will be responsible for their own food and general camp management during the breaks. On the Saturday afternoon in the middle of each session at Range Creek, students will have the option of going to the town of Price to wash clothes and purchase personal items.

The weather in Utah's Colorado Plateau is unpredictable and can change dramatically without notice. In general, expect hot days and cool nights, and dry weather punctuated by afternoon thunderstorms. This field season is sufficiently late that insects should not be a major problem, but students should be alert for rattlesnakes and black bears. The major problems are likely to be sunburn, dehydration and sore muscles. Keep in mind that this is a field school working out of field camps: storms can blow down tents, flood sites and camps; vehicles may break down or get stuck; and medical facilities are often distant. Much of the success or failure of a field season is a function of everyone cheerfully pitching in to overcome the adversities that are guaranteed to arise.

Specialized skills students will have the opportunity to learn

Additional information about optional fields: The field program is filled with day trips to nearby archaeological sites and there will be a series of night lectures on the history of the area and by experts from other projects. Trips will be to both pre-Inca and Inca sites, as well as to Oyacachi the 'gateway' to the Amazon, which is 40 minutes away. Extensive early Christmas shopping can also be done at Otavalo the famous indigenous market. Lastly, we certainly should mention the Inti Raymi or Sun Festival at the Summer Solstice which takes place in full force in the small town of Cangahua where we stay. Traditional music, dance, and costumes abound.

Room and Board Information: Project participants will stay in the Casa Comunal behind the main church in the town of Cangahua. The Casa is a large, two-story building with electricity, running water, showers, a kitchen, a mess hall and plenty of beds. Our meals are prepared by two wonderful cooks who are part of the family. If the idea of dormitory-styled living does not thrill you, you also have the option of staying in the beautiful colonial-period Hacienda Guachalá located down the road from Cangahua. This hacienda is a wonderful hotel located on the grounds of a colonial ranch establish in the 1500s.

Field School Description

The Pompeii Food and Drink project purpose is to study, identify, and document all the excavated structures within and outside the walls of the city of Pompeii, destroyed by Vesuvius in AD 79. The focus of our research is rooms, spaces, and structural and material objects that are associated with food and drink. We perform a non-invasive study of all structures associated with the storage, distribution, processing, preparation, serving, and consumption of food and drink. Upon completing the analysis and documentation, we will identify any patterns of daily life associated with food and drink in Pompeii
We have documented about one-third of the 157 acres of the city—great and small houses; villas outside the walls; shops; bars; restaurants; temples; baths; public market; tombs outside the walls with masonry tables for funeral banquets; and vineyards within the city where cups of wine were served to customers. Evidence of food and drink is everywhere within and outside the walls. We will work this summer in structures around the oldest forum and the theaters, as well as along one major thoroughfare.

Volunteers are taught skills and work under the direction of experienced researchers. Work is carried out in the ancient city for about four hours each day and back at the motel for two hours.

Cooperativa Archeologica "Le Orme dell'Uomo"

Dates: July 18 - August 8, 2005

ARCHAEOLOGY FIELDWORK
PASPARDO - Valcamonica - Italy

The Footsteps of Man Archaeological Cooperative Society is based in Valcamonica, an alpine valley comprised between the province of Bergamo and Brescia in Northern Italy, where rock art constitutes an archaeological, artistic, Ethnographic and historical patrimony of inestimable value, not only for its antiquity but, above all, for the thematic and iconographic wealth. The rupestrian tradition of Valcamonica consists of about three hundred thousands engraved figures mainly located in open air and on flat rocks. The art is distributed across five fundamental periods from Palaeolithic to the arrival of the Romans in the valley.

As an active rock art centre, member of IFRAO (International Federation of Rock Art Organizations), the Footsteps of Man organizes its annual archaeology fieldwork at Paspardo, one of the major area with engravings concentration, giving the opportunity to those interested (archaeologists and scholars, students and enthusiasts) to help the research and the study of the rock art of Valcamonica.

The project participants will: survey, excavate, clean, photograph, draw and catalogue the rocks engraved in three main sites at Paspardo, Valcamonica: Dos Sulif, In Valle, La Volp.

The project consists of different phases, some are made on the sites, some in the laboratory:
• researches on the sites: surveys for finding new engraved rocks; analysis of the damages of the rock surfaces and conservation problems; excavation; drawing of the engravings with permanent pens on plastic sheets; photographs;
• in laboratory: reduction of the drawings in scale size and catalogue of the engravings.

Participants usually come from different countries of the world, official languages are English and Italian.

In Paspardo the accommodation is provided in houses with rooms, dormitories, showers and kitchen.

SITE DESCRIPTION:
Canyon De Chelly National Monument, located in the Four Corners
Region of the southwest, preserves an archeological record which
reveals one of the longest continually inhabited landscapes of North
America. The cultural resources of the canyon, including distinctive
architecture, artifacts, and rock imagery, exhibit remarkable
preservational integrity that provides outstanding opportunities for
study. The archeological record also shows the intimate connection
between landscape and ancestral American Indian communities of the
Colorado Plateau. This connection illustrates the possibilities and
limits of the canyon environment while at the same time expressing
the creative ability of successive ancestral communities to mold and
shape social space over thousands of years. Today, Canyon De Chelly
is unique among NPS units, as it is comprised entirely of Navajo
Nation Tribal Trust Land that remains home to a large canyon
community. The NPS and Navajo Nation work in partnership to manage
park resources and sustain the living community of Canyon De Chelly.

of archeological site, Navajo cultural landscape, and Traditional
Cultural Property recording techniques, artifact identification,
archeological file and database management, and basic canyon safety.

Additional projects relating to the interpretation of cultural
resources may be developed independently for the Interpretive
division.  There will be numerous opportunities to explore the
canyon on your own time and join the park archeologists for trips to
neighboring parks and archeological sites. American Indian events
such as festivals, Pow-Wows, and rodeos take place throughout the
season.

REQUIRED BACKGROUND:
In process or completion of a college degree in archeology,
anthropology (with a track in archeology); ability to read and
create accurate field maps; ability to perform
archeological/cultural landscape surveys and assessments and
accurately record data; ability to traverse rugged terrain in a high
desert, canyon setting, which includes hiking long distances and
steep inclines.

DESIRED BACKGROUND:
Some field experience including but not limited to a university-
based field school, internship, or summer work experience; academic
background in North American archeology and cultures of the
southwest and current American Indian issues is a plus.

HOUSING ARRANGEMENTS:
The park will provide housing.  Housing will be in shared duplexes
or trailers provided by the government in the park housing area.

Hi Folks,

Just an FYI.   This posting just seemed too good of an opportunity to be
true. So I asked the Production Manager Haley to jump through a few
hoops to demonstrate to my, and Jim Colburn's (one of your moderators)
satisfaction the veracity of this posting.  Haley kept up great spirits
over the course of the day so I am very happy to share what is an
unusual opportunity for any of us.

My only request is that you follow the specifics of what Haley requests
here in your application and not pester her with questions, comments,
lengthy opinion pieces , etc...  Haley, like many of us, is on contract
(the film industry is actually a lot like CRM archaeology - a small
percentage of full time employees and a large pool of contractors).  As
a result she is under the all to familiar time crunch and budget
limitations we all experience, so please respect that.  Note that  this
is a different field so use the business model of a formal cover letter,
vita/resume, etc...  no "me name grog.  me pretty like daisy in spring
but no archaeology experience, but I own a fedora.  here is a picture I
pulled off the Internet of what I wish I looked like"...  you get my drift.

So enough of my band standing, I hope you are able to join my old bud
Cameron (he's 'JC to me and the homies) and I on this project - ok thats
last bit might be a crock ;-)

Onto the posting.

Best

R. Joe

Please post or forward the following to any other additional archaeology
mailing lists/Bulletin Boards you belong to.  Shovel Bums is currently
the only list this is being announced on and they would like a broad
distribution.

*Subject:* TITANIC - Opportunity of a Lifetime

Looking for a few archaeologists for the opportunity of a lifetime.

James Cameron will be broadcasting live from the Titanic on Sunday,
July 24, 2005 on the Discovery Channel. Not only will we be pushing
the limits of modern technology to broadcast live from the Mir
submersibles; we will be using smaller, nimbler, second generation
ROV's to penetrate the wreck deeper than any previous mission.

During our expedition, we will be combining new interior footage
with prior interior survey footage, to create a composite database
of the layout of the wreck, position of furniture and artifacts, and
to recreate exactly the interior marine architecture of the Titanic
for the first time. We would like to encourage the selected
archaeologists to participate, not just as recipients of the data,
but in instructing us in proper data and image acquisition, and in
helping us to generate the integrated data products, such as floor
diagrams, grids and CG models, which can have long term archival
value.

The story we intend to tell is largely archaeological and the legacy
of this project are the images we bring back. Simply, Titanic is
deteriorating at a rapid pace. Our desire is to tell her
archaeological story in this live broadcast.

The cruises will take place in June and July. Titanic expertise or
prior marine archaeological fieldwork is not mandatory. We are
looking for enthusiastic and articulate archaeologists with the
desire to go on a unique journey to the bottom of the sea to
scientifically survey and document this significant shipwreck.

If you think you have what it takes to accompany us on this
expedition, send the following to haley@...
haley - at - shovelbums.org by March 31, 2005:

1. Curriculum vitae / Resume
2. Current photograph of yourself (no large files)
3. Dates available
4. Cover letter

Please attach your CV/Resume (in word format) and your photograph
(jpeg - no large files) to your email cover letter.

If you're not familiar with our work, please check out our last
film. We gathered planetary scientists from around the country and
took them to the bottom of the ocean to explore the hydrothermal
vents.
