ANTH 228 - Archeology and the Public: A Global Perspective


Semester Offered: First Semester
Credits (Range): 3 Hours
Attribute: 3 SS, CD
Why is the public so interested in archaeology? What are archaeologists’ responsibilities to the public? Power differences can be justified through claims about the past, archaeological sites can be developed as money-making resources, and audiences love Indiana Jones. Each week, we will explore one way that archaeology is relevant to modern life and ask how archaeologists can engage with the public about that issue. Students will present viewpoints on case studies from around the world. 
Enrollment Limit: 20
Instructor: A. Davis
