- Class Description:
- Anth 4001 Advanced Method and Theory. Spring 2018 topic: Experimental Archaeology. Experimental archaeology is one of the most important tools in archaeology for conducting Middle-Range Research, which enables us to propose and test models explaining the dynamic behavioral and natural processes which led to the formation of the archaeological record. It involves the replication of ancient technologies, such as flintknapping and pottery-making, the study of human subsistence practices such as butchery and farming, and the study of the formation of the archaeological record, including taphonomy and preservation. In this class, we will explore the elements of good experimental design and procedure, and each student will carry out an experimental project of their own design, resulting in a poster or final paper. Class time will often involve group work, as students working on related topics will discuss their research and give each other feedback. This class is designed for advanced undergraduate students who have taken Anth 3001 and, preferably, one upper-level archaeology course. Graduate students are welcome, and will be given graduate credit. Please contact the instructor with any questions.
