Extended Description
Selected Topics: Introduction to Archaeology – An introduction to archaeological method and theory, with special focus on the archaeology of the ancient Mediterranean basin. We will consider the history of the discipline and major advances and trends in archaeological science and interpretation while examining select case-studies from the Mediterranean world (e.g., Çatal Höyük, Knossos, and Pompeii). There will be a “hands-on” component introducing students to basic techniques of field survey and recording. Students taking this course may apply to participate in the Central Lydia Archaeology Survey (near Sardis in western Turkey) in summer 2009. No prerequisite.
