Download or read book Cultural Resources Archaeology written by Thomas William Neumann and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2010 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most students who pursue a career in archaeology will find employment in cultural resource management (CRM), rather than in academia or traditional fieldwork. It is CRM, the protection and preservation of archaeological and other resources, that offers the jobs and provides the funding. Few textbooks, however, are dedicated to teaching students the techniques and practices of this field. Cultural Resources Archaeology, now brought completely up date in this second edition and replete with new case studies from the western U.S., fills in the gap. Drawing on their decades of teaching and field experience, the authors walk students through the intricacies of CRM. They clearly describe the processes of designing a project, conducting assessment, testing, doing essential mitigation work (Phases I, II, and III), and preparing reports. The book's emphasis on real-world problems and issues, use of extensive examples from around the country, and practical advice on everything from law to logistics make it an ideal teaching tool for archaeology students who dream of becoming practicing archaeologists.

Download or read book Practicing Archaeology written by Thomas W. Neumann and published by Rowman Altamira. This book was released on 2009-10-16 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive reference book addresses the questions and problems of cultural resource archaeology for graduate students and practicing archaeological field workers. Neumann and Sanford use their decades of field experience to discuss in great detail the complex processes involved in conducting a CRM project. Dealing with everything from law to logistics, archival research to zoological analysis, project proposals to report production, they provide an invaluable sourcebook for archaeologists who do contract work in the United States. After introducing the legal and ethical aspects of cultural resources management, the authors describe the processes of designing a proposal and contracting for work, doing background research, conducting assessment, testing, mitigation work (Phase I, II, and III), laboratory analysis, and preparing reports for project sponsors. The volume's emphasis on practical problems, use of extensive examples, and detailed advice on a host of subjects make it an ideal training manual and reference tool for archaeologists and field schools.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a practical guide for professional and contract archaeologists to what archaeological strategies to employ in a variety of situations. The authors discuss the balance of cost against results achieved for evaluation work ranging from desk-based assessments, through field-walking, geophysical survey, test-pitting, to machine trenching and more intrusive techniques. The study is not just a theoretical exercise - the authors use twelve real projects, based on a wide range of periods and types, to assess the suitability of various techniques used.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governmental guidelines have forced a dramatic change in the practice of archaeological surveying in recent decades. In response to public and private development, surveying is needed to accurately inventory the cultural resources of a region and provide guidance for their preservation and management. Greg White and Tom King provide a handy introduction to students, field novices, and land managers on the strategies, methods, and logic of contemporary survey work. In addition to providing the legal and historical context for this endeavor the book provides a heavily illustrated, practical guide to conducting a survey to help beginners understand how it works in practice. This volume is perfect for an archaeological methods class, field school, or reference collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pedestrian based archaeological survey is commonly used throughout the western United States to locate, identify, record, and interpret archaeological sites. While procedures, such as transect spacing, transect orientation, data collection, artifact documentation, and site criteria may vary, most survey methods share a common goal: to locate and define the boundaries of archaeological sites. Other researchers question the traditional site-based survey method. Critics suggest that site-based surveys may fail to adequately detect and document artifacts outside of site boundaries (Dunnell and Dancey 1983; Wandsnider and Camilli 1992). Site-based methods may not discern archaeological signatures of past cultures that occurred on the scale of landscapes rather than discrete sites (Ebert 1992; Robins 1998) In response, siteless approaches have been developed to test and address perceived shortcomings of site-based survey methods. The siteless survey utilizes artifacts as the basis for studying the relationships between clustered and non-clustered materials. This thesis examines traditional site-based survey vs. siteless survey within a study area in southern Idaho. Moreover, the study investigates the utility of the nonsite approach to identify spatial distributions, associations, and patterning in cultural materials on the surface of the analysis area. The results of the survey, data management and analyses evaluate if artifacts are randomly distributed or aggregated. Survey results compare the surveys0́9 effectiveness in detecting artifacts. In this comparison, the effects of artifact obtrusiveness/visibility are considered. Results of survey data are examined at different spatial scales to identify clusters and evaluate cluster attributes. Spatial patterning analyses use GIS software including the Getis Ord Gi* hot spot analysis tool and the buffer tool in ArcMap 10.2. Both GIS analyses successfully identified clustering. Finally, the results of analysis compare artifact cluster attributes identified by GIS analyses with site attributes. Siteless survey data and post-field, GIS analyses demonstrate the ability to offer information not available through traditional site-based survey. These results suggest that the siteless survey methods and analytic techniques employed in this study warrant further testing and evaluation.

Neumann and Sanford use their decades of field experience to discuss in great detail the complex processes involved in conducting a CRM project. Dealing with everything from law to logistics, archival research to zoological analysis, project proposals to report production, they provide an invaluable sourcebook to archaeologists who do contract work in North America.
