CLAS340

An intensive three-to-four-week archaeological field school run by the Classics Department. Introduces students to archaeological field methods, including survey, excavation, and artifact recovery and processing. Instruction is through participation in an ongoing research project. Students participate actively in the excavation of a classical site, in addition to attending lectures and participating in site visits. Students may be introduced to the material culture of the region in which the excavation occurs. Students must be prepared for fairly strenuous outdoor physical activity in hot weather.
