AHPG811: Archaeological Practice

Semester 1: Students complete six weeks full-time participation in an excavation in Egypt in December and January. Numbers in this option are strictly limited and students must apply prior to enrolment.

Semester 2: Students participate in a Mediterranean or Near Eastern archaeological project of their own choice. The Department has an arrangement with the University of Ohio for students to participate in an archaeological project at Isthmia, Greece. Before enrolment students must consult with the unit coordinator (Dr Ken Sheedy) and complete a form outlining the proposed fieldwork project. Students are expected to have already completed at least AHPG810. The Department may provide a list of suitable fieldwork projects. Students are individually responsible for meeting any tuition and residential charges and otherwise for planning and paying for travel and accommodation.
