Students in the basic surveying class (Anth 120) learn basic land navigation techniques, map reading, artifact identification, local archaeological chronologies, and site recording methods.\u00a0 The class consists of classroom work in these areas with a combination of lectures and practicum exercises which equips students with the necessary skills to undertake archaeological surveys.\u00a0 Visits to the local site records repository is accompanied by instruction in filling out state archaeological record forms.<\/p>\n

The central focus of the class is two weekends of field survey work for the California state parks.\u00a0 Students camp at the project site and spend four field days locating and recording archaeological sites.\u00a0 These resources are photographed, mapped, and described.\u00a0 The location of the surveys varies but is within San Diego County.\u00a0 The area surveyed is dependent on the needs of the California State Park system.\u00a0 Participation in the field survey is mandatory.<\/p>\n

Following the survey the class will be focused on completing site forms, maps, and descriptions for submission to the State of California Historic Preservation Office and completion of their portions of the final survey report.\u00a0 Grades in the class are determined by a combination of participation, class exercises, and completion of site records.<\/p>\n

The Advanced Archaeological Survey class (Anth 220) is taught in conjunction with the basic survey but extends the student’s skill sets through instruction on the use of Optical and GPS survey instruments and Geographic Information Systems.\u00a0 The Advanced survey class helps the beginning class and supplements the survey with accurate maps and location data.\u00a0 Combined with the introductory class the survey aims to collect enough information to complete a report suitable for submission to the state agencies.<\/p>\n

Students participating in the class are required to purchase equipment such as a personal compass, will need to have access to overnight camping gear, and will need to arrange personal transportation to and from the survey area.<\/p>\n

The archaeological survey classes are part of Palomar’s Archaeological certificate program and provide invaluable practical skills for anyone interested in employment in Archaeological or Environmental fields.\u00a0 The classes are also recommended for anyone interested in basic outdoor navigation skills or curious about our local history.\u00a0 \u00a0There are no prerequisites aside from a willingness to learn and to go into the San Diego back country.<\/p>\n
