The Ozette: An Archeological Site

The Paiute tribe lived in southern Utah and in southern Nevada. The Paiute tribe lived in the California-Intermountain range.

When considering excavation methods, the location of the site has to be taken into account, as many archaeological methodologies can cause long-term damage to the site. So considering conservation strategies and methods is crucial. This directly applies to New Kinord, as the

In the 1930s, Hohokam archaeology was in its infancy. The research organization known as Gila Pueblo chose the prehistoric village of Snaketown as the site for excavation. It would represent Hohokam culture history because the site Snaketown lies in the approximate center of the Hohokam area and had not been altered by pseudo-archaeologists or vandals. (Gladwin, 6) However, Snaketown also boasted massive mounds, an easily distinct canal, and an immense ball court, characteristics that fit the early researchers' understanding of a "type site" that would define the Hohokam concept. (Motsinger, 89) The data from these earliest investigations, Emil Haury's efforts in 1976, and Wilcox's following reevaluation in 1981

ROA’s situation is defined largely by recent financials. They have demonstrated year over year decline in revenue, profit, and net income since 2003 as demonstrated in Figure 1 (below). (MSN Money, 2008)

The archaeological discoveries of Sutton Hoo, the Staffordshire Hoard, and the Book of Kells, along with the epic Beowulf, all analyze the connection between the present and the past time period of the Anglo-Saxons. Warrior culture and Christian culture from the Anglo-Saxon time period, are apart of human cultural heritage today. There are many images and descriptions in Beowulf of treasure and armor which are similar to the findings at Sutton Hoo and Staffordshire. The similarities between the epic and the archaeological findings create an understanding of the connection between the past and the present. The elaborate images in the Book of Kells augment the understanding of early Christian culture and the epic Beowulf synthesises Christian culture and warrior culture.

The following report details the archaeological fieldwork conducted by New South Associates, Inc. for proposed widening and improvements along U.S. 158 in Forsyth and Guilford counties, North Carolina. The purpose of the survey was to identify and evaluate archaeological sites for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), within the proposed project area of potential effects (APE). This project was conducted for the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) (TIP R-2577ABC, State Project No. 37405). This is a state-funded project covered under a United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) individual permit. As such, the USACE serves as the lead federal agency and the work complies with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (NHPA), as amended.

As I researched archaeology field schools to attend, I was drawn to the Mohegan Archaeology Project due to the breadth of methods and techniques that will be used on site, the fact that it is a Native American site, and that it works so closely with the Mohegan tribe to truly meet this people’s needs when excavating its artifacts and preserving its cultural heritage.

They are not the oldest stone tools ever found--those were discovered in northwestern Kenya and date back 3.3 million years. But these are the oldest stone tools found in the Puget Sound lowland area, and the discovery is certainly large and significant for archaeologists. These tools offer new insight into what the human population of Western Washington was doing at the close of the last ice age, the kind of information that could serve to fill other gaps in our knowledge of human history and evolution from prehistoric

Their most popular monument is this stone of the sun known as the calender stone.

Until humans began to domesticate plants and animals about ten thousand years ago, all human societies were hunter-gatherers. Today,only a tiny fraction of the world's populations support themselves and they survive only in isolated, inhospitable areas, and dense rain forests. Given the close relationship between hunter-gatherers and their natural environment,hunting and gathering tribes

Ostia Antica is indeed one of the best preserved archaeological sites in Italy. Nowhere else in the environs of Rome will the visitor gain so full and immediate an idea of the essence and history of an ancient Roman town as amid the ruins of Ostia, Rome's military outpost as well as a domestic landing for cargo boats and warships during the Empire. In the course of centuries the coastline has shifted several miles westwards, but in ancient times Ostia lay directly at the mouth (ostium) of the

While working with a team in the Pacific, off the coast of Tahiti, we received a lead of a possible location for a dig on the island of Oahu. The information stated that a farmer found a roof of a very old structure, which could be connected with past Polynesian culture.

The article states that the situations improve an archeological artifact, and provides three reasons of support. However, the professor explains that situations destroyed the archeological artifacts and provides three reasons which refutes each of the author’s reasons.

This essay will discuss the effect of time on the World War Two Nazi fortifications of Festung Guernsey (Fortress Guernsey), specifically in changing our attitudes to the architectural legacy of aggression and warfare. Despite being over 70 years since the island was liberated from Nazi occupation, many defensive structures still remain as a dark reminder of an unstable and hostile era: ‘the funerary monuments of the German dream.’1Paul Virilio’s book ‘Bunker Archaeology’, from which this quote is taken, acts as an ideal foundation upon which to interrogate our understanding of an architecture born of violence; together with a reproduction of ‘Festung Guernsey’: a document commission by the Commanding Officer of the German garrison. Whilst

For my research project, I did it on the archaeopteryx and the dodo bird. The archaeopteryx, also known as the "ancient wing". It comes from the 2 Greek words archaīos, meaning "ancient," and ptéryx, meaning "wing." The Dodo bird or the "flightless bird" is another example of an extinct species that is included in this paper.
