United States: Preservation Archaeology in Southwest New Mexico - Join Archaeology Southwest and the University of Arizona this summer for the 2016 season of our Preservation Archaeology Field School! Students will earn 7 hours of undergraduate or graduate credit through the University of Arizona while investigating how ancient communities formed during an era of migration and social change. Our team will excavate at the 14th-century Gila River Farm site in beautiful southwest New Mexico. We will also record sites on survey, analyze what we find in the lab, and learn to make and use ancient tools. Field trips to archaeological sites, visits to contemporary Native American communities, and public outreach events emphasize communication with diverse audiences and reinforce the principles of Preservation Archaeology as we focus on recovering maximum information with limited impacts on the archaeological record. Funding may be available for qualified undergraduate students. Applications are due March 18; for more information, see http://www.archaeologysouthwest.org/field-school/ or contact Dr. Karen Schollmeyer at firstname.lastname@example.com.
University of North Carolina at Wilmington – The University of North Carolina at Wilmington will be hosting a 6-credit Summer Field school from May 16-June 16 2016. We will be performing survey, location, excavation, and evaluation on a historic rice plantation constructed along the banks of the Brunswick River in Belville, NC, near Wilmington NC. This will be the first rice plantation to be excavated in the coastal Cape Fear region. We will be excavating in a public park, so public education will be an important part of our field school. The field school will cost UNCW Summer tuition plus $75 equipment fee—please see www.uncw.edu/summer for more information about summer tuition rates. Students should arrange their own lodging in the Wilmington/Belville area, and are responsible for their own meals, but we are happy to help find lodging for out-of-town students. For more information, please check our website at http://people.uncw.edu/rebere/fieldschool2016.htm, or contact Dr. Nora Reber at email@example.com.
New Mexico State University Archaeology Field School – May 26 – July 1, 2016 This is a five-week summer field school with NMSU. Students will excavate and map Cottonwood Spring Pueblo (LA175), one of the largest 14th century Jornada Mogollon villages in southwest New Mexico. The site straddles a large arroyo flowing from the western flanks of the San Andres Mountains, just north of Las Cruces, New Mexico. Students will participate in all phases of archaeological fieldwork, including site survey, excavation, mapping, and laboratory analysis. Transportation to and from the site included. Field school also includes a two-night camping trip to Chaco Canyon. Students will earn 6 credit hours upon completion. Course fee $800 + tuition. International and non-NMSU students welcome! Las Cruces housing options available. Please contact Dr. William Walker: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Argentina - Uspallata Field School –The Uspallata Valley Archeology Project is a unique opportunity for students to investigate the site Cerro Tunduqueral. This site has Mendoza's densest concentration of rock art (more than 400 designs) but we know very little about the people who made these enigmatic engravings. To look for answers we will excavate a nearby rock shelter and compare it to excavations at a second rock shelter in the mountains to the east. The deepest levels of these sites may shed light on the valley's early occupation, which dates back to over 13,000 years, and includes the region's earliest human occupation. Students participating in this field school will discover how hunters and gatherers moved around the landscape, how agriculturalists tapped into its rich soils, how pastoralists took llamas to pasture in secluded mountain valleys, and how these people confronted the Inca empire. The Inca's massive territorial expansion from Cuzco ended in Uspallata, the empire's southernmost Andean occupation. Join us between June 12th and July 16th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/south-america/argentina-uspallata-2016
Brazil - Claudio Cutiao Field School – The Amazonian Interfluvial Archaeological Project began in 2014, exploring human occupation in a little known ecoregion of the Amazon – the headwaters of the river drainages. Going off the beaten path into the depths of the Amazon has been nearly impossible. As such we know little about cultural relationships and boundary lands for large regions of the Amazon. The 2016 field season will involve mapping and excavation at the archaeological site of Claudio Cutião. Our primary research objective for this season is to determine the site boundaries and its internal variability. Due to the perishable nature of building materials in the Amazon, there are no visible architectural features on the surface or below. But local soils have been enriched by organic waste and human actions and created distinct phenomena called 'terra preta' ('black earth') soils. We will examine site organization based on variations in these 'terra preta' soils as well as the distribution of artifacts. Join us between July 3rd and July 31st. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/south-america/brazil-claudio-cutiao-2016
Bulgaria - Apollonia Pontica Field School – Ancient Apollonia Pontica (present-day Sozopol, Bulgria) is one of the earliest towns on the Western Black Sea coast. The city was founded by Milesian colonists at the end of the 7th century BCE. As a result of intensive trade with the surrounding Thracian tribes and the Greek poleis Apollonia became one of the richest and most prosperous Greek colonies in the Black Sea region in Archaic, Classical and Hellenistic period. It was famous in the Ancient World for the colossal bronze statue of Apollo - the patron deity of the town, erected in front of the god's temple. The excavation team lead by Dr. Krastina Panayotova conducts excavation on the small St. Kirik island (connected with the mainland with a breakwater way), where the earliest settlement of Apollonia arose and where later the sacred precinct (temenos) of the town was built. In the 2016 season students will address important questions concerning the continuity of religious activity at the site. We will continue exploring the evolution of the island from its early settlement to a later Christian religious center. The team plans to trace monumental wall foundations excavated in 2014 and 2015 and to search for remains of a propylaeum that most probably was situated in the currently excavated area. The excavations will take place in the periphery of the temenos and will search for remains of cult practices that probably were conducted there. Join us between June 26th and July 24th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/bulgaria-apollonia-2016
Bulgaria - Bresto Field School – The Bresto Excavation Project is located in the mountains of southwestern Bulgaria. This project explores a fortified settlement from the second half of the 2nd millennium BCE. Bresto was founded during the decline of Troy and the fall of both the Hittite Empire in Anatolia and the Aegean palatial civilizations. After the collapse of these polities, new kinds of networks emerged in the Aegean, where former "fringe" areas became important hubs for the exchange of objects, ideas, and practices. Only 80 miles away from the Aegean Sea, Bresto presents many challenges for excavations, including complex stratigraphy. The site is protected by two large fortification walls, one of which has vertical offsets similar to the slightly earlier fortification of Late Bronze Age Troy. An international team of scholars from Bulgaria, Germany, and the US is currently attempting to better understand the story behind Bresto and its place in the transition from the Bronze to the Iron Age. The excavation conducted for the last four years shows that despite Bresto's location in a marginal mountain valley, economic and social life flourished at the site during the 13th–11thcentury BCE. The 2016 season at Bresto aims to address important questions about Bresto's economy, political structure and its relationships to the landscape – both physical and cultural. Join us between July 26th and August 23rd. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/bulgaria-bresto-2016
Macedonia & Bulagria, Ceramic Conservation Field School (bi-national program) – This unique field school allows students to conduct research in two different European countries: The Republic of Macedonia and Bulgaria. It is focused on conservation and restoration of ancient pottery and glass. This program consists of two parts: (1) examining Roman Pottery and Glass in The Republic of Macedonia; and (2) examining Ancient Greek Pottery in Bulgaria. Students will work with pottery recovered from two emblematic sites on the Balkans where the field school takes place: Apollonia Pontica- an ancient Greek colony on the Bulgarian Black Sea Coast, (present-day Sozopol). And Stobi- a Roman and Byzantine city in Central Macedonia. The Workshop's main goal is to provide students with comprehensive training and hands-on experience in pottery and glass conservation. All of this while exposing students to a unique intercultural experience in two South-East European countries. This field school will support archaeologist's effort to preserve, restore, and exhibit valuable artifacts from collections recovered from both sites. Excursions to important historical sites in Bulgaria, The Republic of Macedonia, and Greece, will provide cultural context and an invaluable perspective regarding the objects studied. Join us between June 4th and July 9th . For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/bulgaria-conservation-2016
Bulgaria - Ilindentsi Field School – Ilindentsi is located on a high terrace at 250-253 m above sea-level just at the foot of the Pirin Mountains - the third-highest range on the Balkans. The site (with vertical and horizontal stratigraphy) occupies almost three hectares, where the prehistoric cultural layers lie immediately under the topsoil (10 to 20 cm). During the previous seasons (2004-2009 and 2011-2015) archaeologists unearthed remains of Early and Middle Neolithic settlement structures and features. Research at Ilindentsi aims to address these findings by investigating more nuanced patterns in the archaeological record. Our goal is not only to explore migration routes and reasons for European Neolithisation, but also the type and history of interactions between different groups in the Balkans. Looking at Neolithic groups and farming communities will allow students to dig deeper into these groups interactions specifically examining their technology as well as their economic and social organization. In 2016, students will work on excavation of both Neolithic structures and the pits discovered during the previous seasons in order to address these research questions. Join us between June 12th and July 10th . For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/bulgaria-ilindentsi-2016
Bulgaria - Pistiros Filed School – Between the 5th and 3rd century BC, an Ancient Greek emporion called Pistiros, thrived in Thrace Valley. The emporion was a major port for trade relations between merchants from the Greek coastal cities Maroneia, Apollonia and the island of Thassos and Thracians under the supreme protection of the Odrysian kings. Trade contacts are evident through numerous imports such as Attic red-figured and black-slip pottery, amphorae (mainly Thassian) and coins (e.g. several hoards of copper, silver and gold coins) found during the excavation of Pistiros. Since annual excavations started over 25 years ago, the emporion has been brought back to some of its former glory, exposing an Eastern fortification wall, paved streets and stone building foundations. The goal for the 2016 season is to continue the excavations of the South-Eastern sector of the site. In this specific location next to the fortification wall there is a higher concentration of cult artifacts and features (pits, clay cult altars, etc.). Throughout the field school, students will learn about a range of materials and cultures of Thrace and the Mediterranean, unlocking the secrets of Ancient Greek trade. Training on Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) and Photogrammetry of epigraphic monuments and small finds found in Pistiros will supplement the excavation program. Join us between July 26th and August 23rd. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/bulgaria-pistiros-2016
Bulgaria - Tell Yunatsite Field School – In 1976, regular annual excavations begun at Tell Yunatsite, located near the modern village of Yunatsite, Northwestern Thrace, Bulgaria. At this time, approximately one third of the tell has been excavated, yet sterile soils have not yet been reached. What archaeologists have uncovered is that the tell is very rich with archaeological materials and has an extremely unique stratigraphy. There is a medieval cemetery at its top, followed by a Roman period level, two Iron Age levels, one dated to the Early Bronze and finally a thick Chalcolithic layer. It is unknown if the cultural history of the tell ends at the Chalcolithic or whether older human occupation layers exist. In the 2016 season archaeologists and students will seek together to discover why and how one of the earliest protourban centers in Europe emerged in the beginning of the fifth millennium BCE, and what caused its devastation 800 years later? Join us between June 26th and July 24th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/bulgaria-yunatsite-2016
British Virgin Islands - Guana Island Field School – This unique field school opportunity located in the Caribeean will investigate the events of Free African Communities and the lives of the African-descended peoples of the British Virgin Islands. Even after the 1838 emancipation in the British colonies, former slaves faced incredible obstacles. Many of these stemming from race-based legal restrictions aimed at keeping the economic and political slavery-era status quo intact. All of these contexts were important for the cultural life of the Caribbean, but they have received little study by historical archaeologists, who have tended to focus on large sugar plantations. In addition to being important in their own right—having a "story" which deserves to be told and is little-recorded in historic texts—the goals of this multi-year, multi-site project are to evaluate the creative cultural negotiations of pre-emancipation free and quasi-free communities. The goal and responsibility of this field school is to give voice to their story and highlight their contributions to BVI and Caribbean society which were silenced by history. Join us between June 5th and July 2nd. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/central-america/british-virgin-islands-kingstown-2016
Canada - Fort Vermillion Field School –This field school is located in northern Alberta, a terrain that is stunningly beautiful. Here students will be investigating Fort Vermilion and other settlements dating back to 1799. These studies will examine the establishment of the Canadian based North West Company (NWC), which created trade posts from Lake Athabasca up the Peace River to today's Fort St. John, British Columbia. Fort Vermilion is an ideal site to investigate the geopolitical, social, and cultural dynamics of the fur trade. The site still promises much to be uncovered, as minimal research campaigns have been carried out at the site since its discovery in 1998. These excavations revealed stratified layers of occupation, making it one of the first stratified fur trade sites ever identified in Alberta. By applying insights gained through archaeological, anthropological, and historical research, the current expedition is shedding new light on the people that lived and traded there. Join us between July 24th and August 20th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/north-america/canada-fort-vermillion-2016
China - Yangguanzhai Field School – The prehistoric village of Yangguanzhai (YGZ) dates to the Middle to Late Yangshao period (4,000-3,000 BCE), and it is one of the largest of its kind. The site is located in the Jing River Valley, approximately 25 kilometers north of the ancient city of Xi'an in northwest China. YGZ has a moat, a row of cave dwellings, subterranean houses, child urn-burials, and extensive pottery kilns. In the coming 2016 season, the project will continue working in the northeast portion of the site. There are multiple possible excavations that we will undertake including: refuse pits, a potential large building and a nearby child urn burial, and the cemetery adjacent to the settlement. In addition, students will gain experience in experimental archaeology and will make pottery knives, as they were found in large number at the site. In order to gain a better understanding of the overall settlement system of the region, we will also conduct survey work at the nearby Neolithic sites of Manan and Huiduipo. Join us between June 19th and July 23rd. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/asia/china-yangguanzhai-2016
Colombia - Ciudad Perdida Field School – Ciudad Perdida is one of the most mysterious archeological sites in the world. Hidden deep in the Columbian jungle, this site is only accessible by foot and requires a three day trek. Ciudad Perdida is the largest in a network of Tayrona sites, polities that inhabited the Sierra Nevada for more than a millennium and up until European contact (CE 200-1,600). Relationships between Ciudad Perdida and other sites are still unclear and this project is focused on clarifying temporal, cultural, political, and economic connections within this network. The 2016 season will focus on excavations at three sites located less than half a mile away from Teyuna - Ciudad Perdida's core area. These sites form an intricate web connected via flagstone pathways (Sites G-1, G-2, and B-201). It is also highly probable that students will conduct survey work at a site located 2 miles upriver from Ciudad Perdida known as "Tigres". There is still much to be discovered among these sites and this season's targeted excavation aims to aid us in understanding the construction sequence and functional relationships between them. During this field season, students will also have the opportunity to contribute to essential conservation work at a number of structures that have collapsed and need rebuilding. Local site expert Eduardo Mazuera will lead these efforts working alongside the park's archaeological conservation team. Join us between June 8th and July 8th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/south-america/colombia-ciudad-perdida-2016
Colombia - Providecia Island Field School – The Providencia archaeological project is the first-ever historical archaeological excavation of New Westminster. Providencia was first colonized by English settlers in 1630 CE under the direction of the Providence Island Company. Participating students will focus on discovering the material aspects of the multicultural interactions and exchanges between the different groups on this tiny Caribbean island. Based on the historical record, the supposition is that the material culture of the islanders should reflect English lifeways. The degree of influence of Dutch, Spanish, African, and Amerindian cultures, however, must not be discounted. The small size of the island (only 39 km2) suggests that intercultural contacts and exchanges were a daily occurrence. Historical records indicate that the rivalries on the island were intense. English indentured servants frequently found common cause with enslaved Africans, often to the point of fleeing with them off the island. Several other alliances are also mentioned in the extant historical documents, but the material dimensions of these connections are unknown - There is still much to be discovered at this site. The 2016 season aims to investigate and document the house types and the material culture of the island's colonists. Additionally, we aim to compare these with contemporaneous structures and artifacts found at sites in Bermuda, Massachusetts, and Jamestown, Virginia. Join us between Jully 19th and July 23rd. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/south-america/colombia-providencia-island-2016
Ethiopia - Shire Field School – Located in the Shire region of Northern Ethiopia, this field school will allow students the opportunity to excavate a site which is virtually unexplored. This site is located near the ancient capital of the Aksumite Kingdowm (first to sixth century CE) Mai Adrasha, located 50 KM west of Axum. The site, the region, and its complex cultural heritage, provide important information on the sub-Saharan counterpart of the Greco-Roman world. This societies economic base of agriculture and trade resulted in close contact with the North, and an adoption of early Christianity. The research area consists of almost 100 km² and is located east of the modern city of Inda Selassie. The Shire Archeological Project concession comprises of extensive ancient remains dating from the prehistoric to the medieval period. It includes two large sites, Mai Adrasha and Mezaber Adi Menaber. During the 2016 season, students will work in Mai Adrasha, a site under thereat of destruction due to continuing panning of natural gold by the local population. In addition to survey and intensive excavations, students will also have the opportunity to participate in community outreach and assist with crucial site management. Join us between November 13th and December 17th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/africa/ethiopia-shire-2016
Greece - Methone Field school – Human activity in Pieria ranges from the Late Neolithic (3,500 BCE) through Hellenistic (330-150 BCE) periods. The Ancient Methone Archaeological Project explores the dynamics of landscape and landscape change, with a focus on sea level changes and related shoreline shifts. Integrated geophysical and geomorphological investigations are aimed at reconstructing the palaeoshoreline that defines the location and extent of the port of ancient Methone. This is crucial information that will help guide and focus plans for the broader study of the Haliakmon Delta – a unique environment linking riverine and coastline transport/communication routes to regional models of landscape evolution. The third and final season of excavations planned for 2016 will complete exploration of 6 trenches with Bronze Age burials, Archaic and Classical manufacturing contexts. Field school students will be involved in examining the relationship between the site's ancient history and industries to its strategic location and port, its unique natural resources, and their economic exploitation. Students will divide their time and training between outdoor field work, labwork, and ecofact floating and sorting. Join us between July 31st and September 10th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/greece-methone-2016
Ireland - Blackfriary Summer Field School (Sessions 1 & 2) – The Blackfriary Community Archaeology Project is a unique, hands-on opportunity for students to excavate the buried remains of a 13th century Dominican friary in the town of Trim, County Meath, Ireland. This project focuses on the remains of the Black Friary, and has three primary components: excavation of the friary buildings, community archaeology, and bioarchaeology. Excavation of the friary buildings aims to determine their scope and layout as well as the associated infrastructure, such as drains, water management features, and gardens. By ascertaining who was buried at the Black Friary, where they were buried and when, the bioarchaeological research will inform our understanding of the long-term relationship between the local townspeople and the friary. This program offers two summer sessions. Join us for Session I: June 5th –July 2nd Or Session II: July 10th -Aug 6. For more information, visit our website at https://www.ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/ireland-blackfriary
Ireland - Spike Island field School – This field school is part of an ongoing research project that examines the archaeology of the 19th century prison on Spike Island, Ireland's Alcatraz. During this period dealing with criminals by means of long-term incarceration was new frontier. In Ireland and Britain, long-term confinement only became the dominant means of punishment and social control in the mid-19th century. The architecture of many of the purpose-built prisons from this period reflect their new ideas about the redemptive nature of isolation, discipline and work. The physical isolation of prisoners was not possible on Spike Island because it was originally an early 19th century fortress which was only converted to a prison in 1847, at the height of the Great Famine. The prison was tied into the global reach of the British imperial system of power as in the early years of its operation, it was one of the main holding centers for Irish convicts transported to Australia and to Bermuda. In the 2016 season, we will focus on establishing the location of the burial ground used in the prison's first decade. Join us between June 12th and July 16th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/ireland-spike-island-2016
Israel - Tel beth Shemesh Field School – Since the beginning of modern explorations of the ancient Near East, Tel Beth-Shemesh attracted great interest. Its long sequence of occupational history has yielded significant data about local cultural histories, trade and the evolution of local agricultural practices. During the Late Bronze and Iron Ages, Tel Beth-Shemesh was located at the geographic meeting point of three different ethnic and cultural groups (Philistines, Canaanites and Israelites), making it an ideal site to investigate ancient geopolitical, social, and cultural dynamics at a border zone. This summer our excavation team will concentrate in the northern area of the site in order to explore cultural diversity, continuity, and changes from Level 4 (10th Century BCE) down to Level 9 (13th Century BCE). We began to reach the top of the Late Bronze Age destruction layer at the end of last season (2015) so this year will be especially exciting. Within and under this 13th Century BCE destruction layer we expect to find fired mudbricks, complete ceramic vessels, some of which will likely contain charred plant remains, and many artifacts still preserved in their primary context. We will be excavating in an area of the site where we discovered a very large palace from the el-Amarna Period (14th Century BCE), which may have been the seat of a (female!) monarch who ruled the walled Canaanite city and its environs. Join us between June 11th and July 9th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/me/israel-tel-beth-shemesh-2016
Italy - Prane Siddi Field School – Pran'e Siddi, or the Siddi Plateau, is a high basaltic plateau located in the south-central part of the island of Sardinia. The area around Siddi was inhabited by prehistoric villagers beginning in the Neolithic period (ca. 4,000-3,200 BCE). During the Middle Bronze Age (ca. 1,700-1,450 BCE), the previously egalitarian people began to develop a hierarchical social system with an elite who expressed their power and prestige through the building of monumental stone towers called nuraghi. By 1450 BCE the elite sites on the Siddi Plateau were abandoned and the population moved away. Previous archaeological work in the area suggested that the Nuragic elites may have been using unsustainable agricultural practices to gain wealth and support their power. The Pran'e Siddi Landscape Project was formed to conduct a more thorough investigation of Nuragic climate, environment, land use, and economic practices in the Siddi region. In 2016 we will dig deeper into what kind of pressures – social, environmental, and/or economic – could have made the Nuragic people abandon their towers on the plateau. Many of the questions we are trying to answer can be addressed through careful analysis of the remains the Nuragic people left behind, including pottery, animal bones, and bone, stone, and ceramic tools. During the Pran'e Siddi Landscape Project Laboratory Experience, students will contribute to ongoing research by analyzing animal bones, pottery, artifacts, and sediments recovered from the region in previous years. Join us between July 10th and August 13th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/italy-prace-siddi-2016
Italy - Case Bastione Field School – The Case Bastione field school is located in Sicily within the Western Erei uplands in the valley of the Morello river, a tributary of the Southern Imera river. It is a large settlement which dates from the Late Neolithic to the Bronze Age. This project examines the time span from the 6th millennium to the 1st millennium BCE. This time period covers human presence on the Erei upland, from the beginning of the Neolithic Period to the contact between the local indigenous communities with Greek settlers established along the Sicilian coasts in the 8th-7th century BCE. Through this unique opportunity students are able to participate in an ongoing, large scale research project, co-directed by Dr. Enrico Giannitrapani and Filippo Iannì. This project studies the cultural and social dynamics of human occupation of the Erei upland. Participating students will engage in excavation of the various collapsed layers that cover the beaten clay floor; they will record all the archaeological features encountered, using cutting edge photogrammetric techniques, including digital and 3D systems. Students will also be able to work in the laboratory, washing, cataloging and recording all finds recovered from the excavation. Join us between July 3rd and August 6th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/italy-case-bastione-2016
Jordan - Dhiban Field School – This field school offers students the opportunity to excavate in one of Jordan's most important historical sites. Tall Dhiban is located 40 miles south of Amman and 12 miles east of the Dead Sea. A mound of more than 30 acres in area and 130 feet in height, Tall Dhiban contains a fascinating record of some 6,000 years of human occupation. The Dhiban Excavation and Development Project (DEDP) has been working since 2004 to both understand it's rich and complex archaeological record while preserving and developing this record as an economic and heritage resource for the future. The story of Dhiban is one of "boom and bust", of rapid settlement growth and equally rapid contraction. Excavations in 2012-13 uncovered a large domestic structure from this period that had been burned with its contents in place. In 2016 we will excavate this large house, and document the rich record it contains of life in the 6th-7th centuries CE. Join us between July 14rd and August 18th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/me/jordan-dhiban-2016
Macedonia - Stobi Field School – The Roman city of Stobi was strategically located at the meeting of two important ancient roads that ran along the rivers Axios and Erigon. This position brought Stobi long-term prosperity, especially in the period between the 1st and 3rd centuries CE. The 2016 field school season will focus on the most representative, residential building in Stobi – Theodossian Palace - located at the center of the Roman town, between the streets of Via Principalis Inferior and Via Principalis Superior. The building, which is richly decorated with mosaics, was given its name under the assumption that the emperor Theodosius I was housed there during his visit to Stobi in 388 CE. Work on the palace will continue as will efforts made to investigate the space between the palace and an adjacent building, now called "the Jail" as numerous human remains with their hands tied were found there. The temporal and architectural relationships between the two buildings are unclear, and this season will be dedicated to exploring this important issue and the architectural history of Stobi. Training on Photogrammetry of architectural remains and large archaeological features in excavated units at the site will supplement the excavation program. Join us between June 26th and July 24th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/macedonia-stobi-2016
Nicaragua - El Rayo Field School – For the past 15 years, archaeologists have excavated sites along the shore of Lake Cocibolca in search of archaeological evidence for Mexican colonization. This field school will continue this quest through investigations at the site of El Rayo, the most significant site for studying the potential impact of outsiders on indigenous cultural traditions. This research project will continue a longstanding program from the University of Calgary, working in close collaboration with regional institutions including the National University of Nicaragua and Mi Museo in Granada. The core theoretical perspective focuses on the interpretation of culture change, especially ethnicity, in the centuries leading up to the Spanish Conquest in 1522 CE. As such, the results are of fundamental importance to developing claims of cultural identity by existing indigenous groups in the region. Fieldwork will consist of excavation of residential mounds where evidence of household activities and human remains has previously been observed. Students will work alongside experienced Nicaraguan archaeologists as well as Canadian and American teaching assistants. Additional 2016 field experience will include surveying to map the excavation area and relate finds with those from previously excavated areas, and field drawings of excavation units and profiles. Join us between June 30th and August 4th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/central-america/nicaragua-el-rayo-2016
Peru - Sondor Field School – At the Andahuaylas Bioarchaeology field school students will have the opportunity to investigate the enigmatic fate of the Chanka society of ancient Peru. The Chanka emerged in the Andean highlands around 1000 CE. Today, they are well known through Colonial-era documents and oral history as vicious warriors, who were ultimately vanquished by the Inca Empire in the early 15th century. But what became of Chanka society after their spectacular defeat? This project, situated at Sondor, the premier Inca-Chanka site in the region, employs a full spectrum of bioarchaeological methods to reveal the biological and social consequences of "growing up Chanka" in the face of Inca imperial conquest. The 2016 course is designed to expose students to a broad range of anthropologically informed research. Participating students will participate in excavations and laboratory analyses and learn how archaeological data is collected and processed. Students will also develop the skills needed to interpret multiple data sets and test working hypotheses. At the conclusion of this field school, students will be able to run an excavation unit and engage in comprehensive skeletal analysis. Join us between June 25th and July 23rd. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/south-america/peru-sondor-2016
Philippines - Ifugao Field School – The Ifugao Rice Terraces are UNESCO World Heritage monuments that attest to the ingenuity and communitarian management of Cordilleran people of Luzon in the Philippines. Once thought to be over 2,000 years old, our recent work has demonstrated that the upland rice field systems in the region were responses to the social and political pressure from intrusive Spanish colonization into the region starting at c. AD 1600. To determine the impacts of Spanish colonialism on Philippine highland populations, the 2016 field season of the Ifugao Archaeological Project (IAP) will focus on the Old Kiyyangan Village, an abandoned settlement in the town of Kiangan, Ifugao. The IAP's primary research goals are: 1) to document highland political and economic responses to colonialism by looking at the development and expansion of the Old Kiyyangan Village; 2) to determine subsistence shifts and health and diet by examining botanical, faunal, and human skeletal remains; 3) to investigate the process of increasing social differentiation through the examination of exotic goods; and, 4) to understand how the Philippine highlands resisted Spanish colonialism by exploring settlement patterns in Ifugao. Join us between June 20th and July 24th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/asia/philippines-ifugao-2016
Senegal - Bandafassi Field School – In 2012 the rolling hills of the Bandafassi Plateau in southeastern Senegal became part of a UNESCO World Heritage site recognizing both the natural beauty of this landscape and the cultural heritage of Bassari, Bedik, Peul, and Mande people living there today. Although local villages appear to preserve a "traditional" way of life, many historical accounts suggest that this region has long been a crossroads for powerful kingdoms and vast trade networks that shaped political, economic, and cultural life in West Africa over the past 2000 years. The goal of the Bandafassi Historical Landscape Project (BHLP) is to study such processes and identify the temporal and cultural changes the region experienced and that are shaping it today. The BHLP 2016 field school will undertake an archaeological, anthropological, and historical study of this landscape, with particular focus on the village site of Ethiowar Ancien occupied during the 18-19th centuries CE. It is during that crucial period when political conflict, migration, and interactions among numerous ethnic groups contributed to the emergence of the complex cultural mosaic seen today in southeastern Senegal. . Join us between May 19th and June 22th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/africa/senegal-bandafassi-2016
Spain - Cova Gran Field School – Cova Gran de Santa Linya (Lleida, Catalunya) is a rock shelter located at the seam between the first range of the southern Pyrenees and the Ebro Basin. The cave is rich with evidence of human occupation dating to at least as early as 50,000 years ago and continuing through the Neolithic and Bronze Ages. Investigation at the site will allow us to recognize both the evolution of hunting and gathering strategies in the region and recognize important differences between Neanderthals and Modern human adaptive strategies. The deep archaeological sequence at Cova Gran contains animal bones, hearths, and Middle and Upper Paleolithic artifacts. The presence of Early Upper Paleolithic layers in stratigraphic context enable careful examination of two competing models that explains Middle/Upper Paleolithic "transition": the first suggest continuity and the second suggest population replacement. This program will combine lectures, field survey, excavation and laboratory training. The long human occupation sequence at Cova Gran will provide students with the rare opportunity to explore and document an extensive cultural sequence of the region, beginning ca. 50,000 years ago. Join us between June 26th and July 30th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/spain-cova-gran-2016
Spain - Civil War Field School – In this field school students have the opportunity to participate in the historical and ongoing "Battle for Madrid" research study. This is part of a long-term project examining the archaeology of conflict in Spain, covering the civil war (1936-1939) and the Franco dictatorship (1939-1975). The project aims to understand the social experience of institutional and non-institutional violence and political repression using material culture as its main source. The project, which started in 2006, has examined a variety of war and postwar scenarios, from battlefields to social housing. The Spanish Civil War is the perfect place to understand modern mass violence through its archaeological signatures. The 2016 season intends to deploy a variety of state-of-the-art archaeological techniques to document and analyze the remains of the war and postwar period in and around Madrid. This project excavates literally and metaphorically the myths of the Spanish Civil War that captured the worlds imagination and those of the dictatorship that followed. Join us between June 30th and July 31st. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/spain-civil-war-2016
Tunisia - Zita Field School – The site of Zita is an urban mound located in southern Tunisia and situated along an ancient trade route from Carthage to Tripoli. Identified by a Latin inscription as the Roman city of "Zita" ("Olive City" in Punic) it contains a Carthaginian child sacrifice precinct (tophet). This is a lab based field school - this means that we will not be excavating. We will, however, be engaging in several technical and analytical projects that provide a rare opportunity for student participation. In addition to 1) analysis using portable X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (pXRF) of environmental soil and industrial artifacts and 2) the bioarchaeological recovery of sacrificial remains both described in the next paragraphs, students will engage in 3) ceramic drawing, and 4) experimental archaeology and ethnoarchaeology of traditional olive charcoal production, perhaps also traditional plaster production, and if there is a harvest, traditional olive collection and processing. The work will be conducted in the storage facilities of the Zarzis Museum, on site, and in the villa where we live. Join us between August 1st and September 1st. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/africa/tunisia-zita-2016
Turkey - Boncuklu Field School – The Boncuklu project is investigating the appearance of the first villages and farmers in central Turkey. At Boncuklu we are also exploring the origins of the remarkable symbolism seen in paintings and reliefs at the nearby famous Neolithic town of Çatalhöyük. The course will take place at the Neolithic site of Boncuklu, dating to c. 8500 BCE, the earliest village in central Anatolia and the predecessor of the famous Neolithic site of Çatalhöyük. The site is located in the Konya Plain in central Turkey, 40 kms east of the major city of Konya, a famous Medieval centre where the 'whirling dervish' sect was founded by the Medieval philosopher Celaleddin Rumi. There are many medieval buildings of the Seljuk period to visit in Konya, a booming city. The field school also includes visits to other sites and museums in central Turkey including Çatalhöyük, the Hittite capital Hatussas, the Anatolian Civilizations Museum in Ankara and the dramatic Neolithic site of Aşıklı, with evidence of repeated rebuilding of houses and an experimental village. Aşıklı is located about 3 hours east of Konya in Cappadocia, also famous for its underground cities and painted medieval churches which there will thus be an opportunity to visit. Join us between July 17th and August 20th. For more information, visit our website at https://www.ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/turkey-buncuklu-2016

In this field school students will have the opportunity to participate in an onging research project historically comparable with those at famous sites such as Stonehenge and Avebury. Milfield contains a Neolithic monument complex of unrivalled complexity, with at least seven henges, two stone circles, a ceremonial 'avenue' pit alignments, and carved rock-art. The Milfield Landscape project aims to examine the full range of these monuments, and place them in their landscape context. This will be achieved through direct excavation, environmental sampling and landscape recording. Join us between July 31st and August 28th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/uk-milfield-2016
United Kingdom - Penycloddiau Field School- This field school offers students a unique prehistoric excavation opportunity, from a spectacular hillfort location. At 21 hectares, Penycloddiau hillfort is one of the largest pre-Roman Iron Age sites in the UK, and the biggest hillfort in Wales. It is located on the Clwydian hill-range, in North Wales and at 430 meters above sea level, the site provides spectacular views over coastal western Britain. The 2016 season will provide students with a solid understanding of the full range of practical and professional skills involved in the archaeological process. Through our excavations at Penycloddiau, we intend to discover when and why people first began to join together in these very large community-level groups. Our research will focus on the stratigraphy of the architecture, and its meaning for the evolution of community organization, social change, and everyday life at Penycloddiau and beyond. Join us between July 17th and August 13th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/uk-penycloddiau-2016
United Kingdom - Ribchester Field School – The village of Ribchester – nestled in the heart of Lancashire's beautiful Ribble valley – has a long and important history. The village itself dates back to the Roman period when an auxiliary cavalry fort was established on the north bank of the river Ribble. The fort, built in approximately AD 72-3, was built in a similar style to most Roman forts. But Ribchester is particularly unique because of it's unusually large Vicus (the town just outside) which allowed it to function as a Veteranorum for retired solders. This new project will revisit Ribchester through exploration of the archaeological archives requiring significant excavation. Its primary objective to explore the evolving use of the interior of the fort and its changing relationship with the Vicus. To that end in 2015 the team opened a large 30m by 10m trench just inside the fort's north gate, opposite the granaries and where it is believed the barracks were located. The trench revealed the remains of a clay floored building, where the presence of a hearth, kiln fragments, slag, and glassworking refuse hint at a workshop. Adjacent to these findings, a dark soil deposit yielded a wealth of evidence for activity within the fort, including lead weights, metalworking slag, and the majority of the 22 Roman coins found on the site this year. The remains suggest the fort's role had changed, but it was still in use at the end of the Roman period. All of these features will be excavated in 2016. Join us between June 15th and July 18th. For more information, visit our website at http://ifrglobal.org/programs/europe/uk-ribchester-2016

Rock County Health Officer Karen Cain says the first doses of H1N1 Flu vaccine have been offered to health workers.
She says they need the vaccine first, so they'll be healthy enough to help others. The Health Department expects shipments every week and intends to offer the first public immunization clinics in schools at the end of the month.
These clinics will be for children and young adults.

Does it use air technology to create good water pressure?A. The Kohler K-16245 does not use air technology to create good water pressure. The water pressure is controlled by the volume and this shower head uses master clean spray nozzles which prevent build up from forming which would help with water pressure as well.
What is the difference b/t vibrant brushed bronze and brushed bronze?A. vibrant brushed bronze is a little brighter than the brushed bronze. The difference between the two is comparable to that of the difference between polished chrome and regular chrome.
Do any of the 3 functions limit the flow rate to 1.75 gpm? I am looking for a low flow shower head in this type of style.A. The Kohler K-16245 is a 2.5 GPM showerhead on all settings.
Is there a description of the shower head i.e., what are the 3 settings?A. The K-16245 Multi-function showerhead delivers wide, full coverage spray, aerated spray and massage spray

Hi. My friend and I are getting a pony (well really I am) But anyway, we are also running little pony rides as such, but we are both a little older than 8 or 9. We are like 12-13 years old and weigh less than 60. We want a sort of tall pony, one small so littlies can ride it, but one tall enough and strong enough to hold us.
Any ideas? Thanks!

We track four people on their journey.
A look at the history of France's black community
12 Mar 2014 09:58 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt
Larbi Sadiki is a specialist in Arab democratisation, revolution and transitions, and has been an academic at Australian National University, Exeter University, Westminster University and Qatar University.
The narratives and practices of moral protest, from North Africa to the Ukraine, on such a wide canvass, display the verve and passion for returning people to rule and rule to the people. What is striking about the current historical moment is primarily the 'death of the hegemon'. In the Arab world,the usual dichotomies that have for so long perturbed the Arab psyche may be finally coming unstuck – namely the colonizer-colonized power relations that have structured Arab-Western geo-strategy for so long.
I mean by this that to use the totalizing terms popularized by Orientalism, the 'East'- a generalizing term to refer here specifically to the Arab Middle East – is no longer a 'workshop' or a 'laboratory' where experimentation with the ideas and theories invented
The mass protests that have swept the world, from North Africa to Ukraine, display people's verve and passion for a return to the basic tenets of democracy - rule by the people, for the people. What is striking about this historic moment, for the Arab world in particular, is the unraveling of the usual dichotomies that have for so long plagued Arabs, namely the coloniser-colonised power relations at the root of Arab-Western geo-strategy.
To borrow an "Orientalist" term, the "East" is no longer a workshop or a laboratory for experimentation with ideas and theories invented by the "West".
The polarities that litter the narration of democracy's global travel should not be framed in either Orientalist or Occidentalist terms. I see a new journey that calls for synergy, partnership and co-learning. The democratic moment North African revolutions have heralded has necessitated cross-pollination: The ethos of pluralism, good government, and democratic identity defy being boxed into a single location, paradigm of knowledge, ethnicity, region, religion or civilisation.
I think we can all bid farewell to the "clash of civilisations".
Mapping out democratic routes
Today, this region pulsates with the ethics and values of democratising civilisations. Democracy itself continues to be contested, making room for temporal, spatial and cultural difference and specificity as well as for shared spaces and commonality.
Indeed, these newly emerging spaces spell out "in-between-ness", negating democratic mentoring from the West to the rest, singular and top-down democratic knowing and "civilising" from without.
Democracy is intrinsically pluralist: It negates surrender to singular thinking, or single authors. It is a value system that opens up ways to map out democratic routes, reify democratic identities and build democratic institutions in a multicultural fashion.
The historic moment - as far as the Arab Spring is concerned - may be labelled "the moment of agency". We all recall the iconic cries of the Arab public squares: "Al-shaab yureed" [The people want]
Thus agency is repositioned in public consciousness as not simply the mantra of the still unfurling Arab Spring - with all its fluidity, bright and dark spots - but also as an ethos. This underpins the normative dimension which comes to the fore, hinting at the democratic futures and communities being re-imagined across the vast Arab geography.
Through the Arab Spring, bridges are being built to reach the West, this time, however, on Arab terms: Seeking democratic futures is no longer the figment of remote policy-making communities detached from unfolding events, struggles, and communities.
The Arab Middle East (AME) has historically featured as a contributor to Euro-Med cultures and civilisations.
The deluge of agency in the context of the Arab Spring has yielded democratic voluntarism. Arabs willingly seek democratic futures - discarding the need for systematic classroom-type induction such as through the now defunct "Greater Middle East Initiative", itself the by-product of power relations engineered after the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
In other words, the time has never been more ripe for partnering voluntarily with the rest of the world on the basis of mutuality, reciprocity and equality.
Today an arch of possibilities is emerging within the democratic stories and struggles that accompany agency. Democracy exists in a fluid sense requiring constant renewals and, more importantly, in the Arab context reference to the Arab youths whose inventiveness and cries for freedom and dignity have opened up such an arch of possibilities in the first place.
A two-way flow
Integral to this is the didactic. Therefore, south-south democratic co-learning cannot ignore the demography of the Arab Spring and primary citizenry - which, in this regard differs from transitions in the 1990s in Eastern Europe, for instance. Plus, we all know that transition in Eastern Europe was from one ideology to another.
The Arab Spring was not catalysed by the quest for unhinging hegemonic ideologies - but more appropriately dynastic republics in whose hands conflated the means and resources of political, economic, informational, and coercive prowess. The Arab Middle East (AME) has historically featured as a contributor to Euro-Med cultures and civilisations.
Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Phoenicia all at one point in time or another mediated processes of infusion, inclusion and diffusion of learning. The flow was not one-way. The travel of ideas left lasting inscriptions on AME's cultural map.
As the Arab Middle East enters its democratic and revolutionary moment, it is apt to address the question of democratic knowledge and trans-democratic exchange. This question is noted by glaring omission in most accounts of the Arab region since the eruption of the 2011 uprisings.
This moment registers continuity as much as rupture. It is a moment opportune for a break, encouraging the unshackling of the region from postcolonial histories of tutelage from without. Yet, at the same time, it renews the ethos of exchange, remaking North Africa as a shared space of democratising ferment, democratic exchange, and diffusion of democratic knowledge.
Yet we have examples of bright spots of inspiration, learning and dialogue by the founders of Tunisia's constitution who have exercised modularity very widely, picking the brain of democrats everywhere.
From Portugal for instance, the semi-presidential system; from France rule of law; from the US civil and political liberties; from the UK the robustness of parliamentary institutions. And the Transitional Justice Law crated in December was, among other countries, inspired by the South African model.
Similarly, there are opportunities of learning community participation and bottom-up strategies of direct democracy or the relevant socio-economic and ecological values and the role of religion in politics from Southern and Latin American experiences (like the Zapatista movement)
The idea that south-south exchange could bring together students and teachers to share learning, experiences, stories, struggles and even triumphs of democracy must not preclude the possibility of Arabs learning from each other. The idea here is that those who cannot learn from within, will not be able to learn from without. These didactic processes must work in tandem.
There are always highs and lows on any learning journey. However, it is the peoples we encounter through co-learning, dialogues, discussions, class-rooms, which create the greatest memories - and hopefully intellectual sparks. Examples attesting to a local repertoire of potentially useful democratic learning, include Kuwait's parliament, Tunisia's trade unions and Jordan's charity and local development exercises.
One must underscore the importance of contingent and contextual variables in accounting for divergent trajectories of transitions within the Arab Spring, as scholars such as Laurence Whitehead of Oxford keep reminding students of democratisation.
This is why when framing south-south democratic co-learning, specificity (understood in positive terms not as an autarchic device) must still be accounted for - as one means of knowing where to locate good practices that transcend locality.
The Arab Spring states and peoples' engagement must address the civic, the economic, the legal, the institutional and the attitudinal (e.g. compromise, dialogue, acceptance of defeat, free inquiry, etc). This must be realised through the creation of shared spaces and interlocking publics for the dissemination of democratic know-how: State-to-state, elite-to-elite and people-to-people.
This presents the region's peoples with opportunities and challenges for exchanging ideas with other regions - dialogically and interactively.

Sean Trende points out: "Democrats barely fielded 2/3 the number of candidates for office in Missouri as Republicans."
As you can see in this chart, GOP Senate candidate Rep. Roy Blunt surged ahead of Democrat Robin Carnahan in December. It's a complete coincidence that Blunt trailed Carnahan before the Senate voted on Obmacare in December and led in every poll after its passage, right?

Respond to Review of Woodlands Vegan Bistro
by ConsciousBurning
Review: I live about a 5 minute walk away from Woodlands, which is good and bad- good because the food is so delicious, but dangerous for the same reason! Their mac & cheese is amazing. They have a ton of cold, raw salads to choose from. I didn't like the garlic kale; it was actually a little too garlicky for me, and I really like garlic. My partner, who is decidedly not vegan, also likes the food here. I haven't had their smoothies or soft serve yet (maybe next summer) but the smoothies are made with fresh ingredients. Get a cinnamon roll, but be warned: you may eat the whole thing in one sitting! I like this place a lot because it has such an interesting mix of clientele- folks who have lived in the area for years and years, Howard students, hipsters, and yuppies like myself. There's currently some construction going on next door but it hasn't interfered with Woodlands' hours.

Just wondering if CBS would easily support a league such as this.

We currently have a product in the sporting industry comprising of two circuit boards. It is similar to a tennis ball machine. The main board controls a number of motors and actuators using a pic controller. The second board has an LCD, 4 push buttons and 3 rotary dials. The control board sends signals to the main board to control the machine. We want to replace all the control board function (user input) with a touch screen.
The new control board can do the same function as the old board. The project would also include any reprogramming of the pic controller required to accept input of the touch screen.
The touch screen can also be a touch screen that has specific zones that accept input to keep cost down.

Politicos should be ashamed
There are so many bad things about the Pacific Connector gas pipeline it's hard to sit down and write a letter in 250 words to express my dissatisfaction with our elected leaders, with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, and with Williams Pipeline.
First of all, how can they take private property by eminent domain so that a Canadian gas company can reap billion in profits and not give one penny to the state, to the county, or to the people who are forced to give up their land?
It is easy for all of the politicos and chamber of commerce types to attend meetings in Roseburg or Salem at odd hours and blow off the concerns of rural landowners, but they ought to realize the value of these lands to the long-range income for Douglas County. Instead, they are willing to trade off someone else's life's work and investment so they can enjoy a fast buck for a year or two.
My husband and I worked at a plywood mill most of our adult lives to earn a happy home with trees and beauty around us. This is a dream shared by many Americans, and Camas Valley is a special place. The pipeline tears all that up, so Veresen Energy of Calgary, Alberta, can rob us. Who is going to want to come here and buy real estate anywhere near this dangerous installation? How can our elected leaders allow this? Governor Kitzhaber ought to be ashamed of himself.
