Archaeological Practice 1
Course content
The course gives an introduction to essential archaeological methods, which includes practical (excavation, stratigraphy, survey) as well as more theoretical (typology, dating, analysis) aspects. A short introduction to archaeological theory and research history is also included. The course is the necessary preparation for archaeological fieldwork in Near Eastern archaeology (participation in a field school/archaeological project requires a passed exam in this course).
