ANT-2100 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Posthole, Data Recovery, Remote Sensing
Document Summary
Plan for how the archaeological project will ne conducted in order to meet the goals of the project. Project proposal to include: a. b. c. d. Methods to be used for survey, testing, data recovery. Post-fieldwork plans a. labwork/analysis b. reporting: curation of artifacts and data. If working on public lands needs public land allowance. Remote sensing is method used to know where to dig.
