ARCHAEOLOGY: THE MYSTERY OF THE PRESIDIO

For over two hundred years the Spanish colonial citadel of San Diego has been
buried on the summit at Presidio Hill. Students in this course aid in
unearthing artifacts and architectural remains of the vanished settlement.
They also help analyze the objects that they recover and attend lectures
focusing on a variety of related topics, including Spanish colonial history
and archaeology, Latino frontier culture, artifact identification,
archaeological field methods, current trends in historical archaeology, and
the development of research at the site. In addition to lectures, students
must complete 8 hours of fieldwork per week, any day, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Students may enroll in Part I or Part II or both.

NOTE: Pre-enrollment required. No visitors permitted.
