Resource: Archaeological Survey

Description

This chapter of the Archaeology textbook covers the question of how do archaeologists know where to dig and the role of Archaeological Survey, both as an adjunct to excavation, as well as in cases where excavation is not undertaken. The equipment used for archaeological survey, as well as some of the types of archaeological sites are described. Methods of survey are discussed and some real-world examples are given to provide context.
