83. Scotland's Extraordinary Archaeology: Stone Circles, Henges, And Megalithic Monu

    http://residentassociates.org/rap/scotland/archeology.asp
    
    Extractions: Topics: ALL-DAY SEMINAR: Sat., May 10, 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The amazing chambered tomb of Maes Howe (older than the Egyptian pyramids); the remarkably intact Neolithic settlement of Skara Brae; the Ring of Brodgar, with its possible astronomical alignment; the symbols of power used around the time of Stonehenge-these stunning sites and artifacts are archaeological highlights of the Neolithic and Bronze ages in Scotland. Archaeologists David Clarke and Alison Sheridan of the National Museums of Scotland discuss various sites and their possible meaning in this richly illustrated seminar. What was the role, for instance, of astronomical observation in stone circles and henges, and how did ancient people interpret planetary movements to practice their beliefs? Clarke, who has excavated at Skara Brae and other intriguing sites such as the Links of Noltland, also discusses megalithic funerary monuments, why burial practices changed from communal to individual interment, and evidence for far-reaching contact with continental Europe and Ireland.

The book brings together environmental, ecological, historical, geological, and archaeological approaches to show how changing climatic conditions and a sequence of cultural impacts shaped the succession of Scottish landscapes that has led to its present unique, beautiful, fleeting forms and variety.

    Extractions: by John Bendiks When asked what I do for a living I reply blandly that I’m a field archaeologist and people nearly always respond sincerely, though equally as blandly with ‘That’s interesting’. I can see that their perception of what I do is roughly as follows. I have a well-paid job directing minions at a leisurely excavation in some idyllic setting, sometimes discussing the fascinating site and the mysteries it contains whilst seated under a parasol sipping a martini. When I do deign to work I gently scrape away loose earth with a trowel which falls away like dry flour from ‘wonderful things’ such as Celtic burials or gold coins. After work I retire to the nearest five-star hotel where I bore my fellow guests with tales of my adventures that day. I usually leave people to carry on thinking this way as trying to tell them differently is akin to telling children that Santa Claus does not exist. The reality is often very, very different, however, so I feel it is my duty to inform anyone who is thinking of coming to study or work in archaeology in Scotland about a

    http://www.dickinson.edu/global/summer_prog/scotland.html
    
    Extractions: The excavation in Scotland is a joint venture between Dickinson and the University of Durham (Department of Archaeology) in England. The enterprise is called "The Traprain Law Project," named from a hill fort that dominates the East Lothian district of southern Scotland. The aim of the project is to excavate farmsteads and small fortified places in order to place the native culture uncovered into historical and social context, as well as to define the role of Traprain hill fort and Rome in relationship to the culture. The tribe that lived in the area is called by the Romans,"Votadini." This project started in 2002 and will continue for the next few years. Academics Pre-departure orientation sessions will be scheduled during the spring 2003 semester as preparation for the program. During the excavation, Monday through Friday will be given over to digging, each day beginning at 8:00 a.m. and ending at 5:00 p.m., with breaks at 11 a.m., 1-2 p.m., and 3:30 p.m.. (Be forewarned that weekends may be used if necessary.) Excavation is hard, physical work, and students should be prepared for it. Students will be required to participate in the excavation and keep a daily journal on field archaeology, which will be handed in at the end of the excavation. The project is co-sponsored by the Department of Archaeology, Durham University, England. Students from that department also participate in the excavation.
