Resource: Archaeological Excavation

Description

Archaeological excavation is the task most commonly associated with archaeologists, and yet it usually takes up the least time in an archaeologist’s calendar. This chapter of the Archaeology textbook examines how excavation is undertaken – as a methodical and meticulous process. Sections on Layout, Digging and Recording and Measuring cover the different aspects of archaeological excavation.
