But if we set aside these stories, do we really know what happened when, and why it's so important? Which came first, the Bronze Age or the Stone Age? Why did the Romans play such a significant role in our past? And how did a nation as small as Britain come to command such a vast empire? Here, Tim Taylor and the team of expert historians behind Channel 4's Time Team, answer these questions and many more, cataloguing British history in a way that is accessible to all.

  • ANTH 235: Archeology of Native North America - Spring 2019
    ANTH 235: Archeology of Native North America - Spring 2019 Dr. April M. Beisaw [email protected] Course meetings: Mondays & Wednesdays - Blodgett Hall 101 - 10:30 to 11:45am Office hours: Mondays - Blodgett Hall 318 - 3:00-4:30pm, and by Friday mornings by appointment Course Description Native Americans have been in North America for at least the last 10,000 years. From the archaeological record of their cultures, we can see how they farmed in the scorching desert, hunted in the frozen tundra, and traded resources between groups over thousands of miles. Native creativity and resiliency is evident in their past and their present, as indigenous archaeologists and community archaeology programs are changing how archaeology is done, who it is done by and for, and what questions are asked of the past. This course will survey the archaeology of two distinct geographical culture areas, the Southwest and the Northeast. The Southwest, centered on the four-corners of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah, is characterized by elaborately painted pottery and standing stone ruins. The Northeast, from Maryland to Maine, is characterized by an unpainted pottery and architectural remnants that are visible as stains in the soil. Because of its greater aesthetic appeal, the Southwest has received much more attention. This contrast will allow us to examine how knowledge of the past is constructed by archaeologists, museum professionals, descendant communities, and public interest. Objectives 1. Explore the variety of Native American cultures 2. Develop in-depth knowledge of several Northeastern and Southwestern cultures 3. Compare indigenous and collaborative archaeological approaches to those that came before Textbooks Cordell, Linda and Maxine McBrinn 2012 Archaeology of the Southwest.
