NATSC 0270 - SCIENCE + PREHISTORY > ARCHAEOLOGY

Minimum Credits: 4
Maximum Credits: 4
Archaeology in theory, method and practice overlaps with the physical sciences, notably biology, chemistry and geology. Using a pedagogical approach, this course explores these many relationships. A history of the interaction between science and archaeology is surveyed. Techniques for introducing archaeology to the science classroom at both early childhood and secondary levels are demonstrated, illustrating how the physical sciences: (a) collaborate with archaeology illuminate the record of human kind's past; (b) help preserve these fragile resources; and (c) share in our society's stewardship responsibility to conserve the past for posterity.
