Course Description
Interested in the process of making and testing our knowledge of the past? Come explore how archaeological information is produced. Students focus on understanding how belongings become interpreted as artifacts as we learn different cross-cultural and historic technologies of production and design. By transforming raw materials into objects students get to experience first-hand the challenges and constraints of experimental archaeology, and how this contributes to the archaeological record and study of material objects.
