http://www.swanet.org/

Extractions: The Greater Southwest Archaeologists call it "The Greater Southwest." The geographic boundaries have never been precisely delineated, but an 'old saw' suggests that the region runs from Durango Colorado to Durango Mexico, and from Las Vegas Nevada to Las Vegas New Mexico. The archaeologists of this region celebrate a diverse mix of people and their cultures, the in-situ preservation of sites and artifacts, and the greater scientific appreciation of these elements within their cultural, biological and spatial contexts. Before you visit the local dig, check with SWA for the latest information about the archaeology of the Greater Southwest. Then, get out your "45-5" Marshalltown Trowel and sharpen it. There are many great layers of material culture and stratigraphy to uncover!

Archaeology At The Israel Museum
This museum in Jerusalem provides online exhibitions and an illustrated catalog of its collections from prehistory until the thirteenth century.
http://www.imj.org.il/eng/archaeology/index.html

Extractions: Permanent Exhibitions Archaeology of the Land of Israel Neighbouring Cultures Numismatic Collection The archaeology of the Land of Israel has its own peculiar array of motifs, ideas and practitioners. Two major themes stretch throughout the history of Holy Land. The first concerns Israel's position as a bridge between the great civilizations of Egypt and Mesopotamia while the second, is the fragmentary, segmented character of society in a landscape that encouraged regionality and discouraged large-scale organization. The history and the archaeology of the Land of Israel are wonderfully enhanced, and at times, complicated, by the fact that three of the world's great religions Judaism, Christianity and Islam regard it as holy. Archaeologists and curators in this part of the museum, must often deal with historical reality on one hand, and faith on the other. But more than anything else, it is precisely the connection between faith and history that brings two million people a year to visit Israel, many of whom visit the Israel Museum.

http://www.fabjob.com/archaeology.asp

Extractions: Discover the Mysteries of the Past Archaeology is an exciting and rewarding career. As an archaeologist you can work outdoors , make important discoveries , and find answers to mysteries about how humans have lived. Our fascination with archaeology is one of the reasons the Indiana Jones movies and National Geographic are so popular. Archaeology is, quite simply, the study of human cultures from around the world and throughout time. Archaeologists find and study " artifacts " items that people in the past left behind to discover how those people lived, what they wore, when they hunted or farmed, how they built their homes, what toys their children played with, and what they believed in. Some archaeologists even discover treasures such as King Tut's tomb In archaeology, your day at work can range from an excavation in the Egyptian desert to working with native people in Alaska. It includes both physical activity and intellectual pursuit . The fascination with the past, the thrill of discovery and the wide range of activities involved in archaeology make it a very desirable career for many people. Archaeology offers the opportunity to learn new things every single day whether you are in the field or in the lab, analyzing the results of your investigations. As an archaeologist, I am able to travel to some unusual and beautiful places.
New Maya Site Found
Article discussing the ruins of a Maya city discovered near a tributary of the Rio San Pedro in northern Guatemala.
http://www.archaeology.org/online/news/la.corona.html

Extractions: O NLINE N EWS June 25, 1997 N EW M AYA S ITE F OUND Ian Graham examines a carved altar at the recently discovered Maya site of La Corona, in northern Guatemala, while David Stuart (at left) and others look on. (James D. Nations) [LARGER IMAGE] Ian Graham and David Stuart, of Harvard University's Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, went there this past May to map the site and photograph and draw any surviving inscriptions. "The ruins are not extensive," says Graham, "but everywhere there are vast looters' excavations." Because five small temples standing in a row reminded the guide of a crown, Graham and Stuart named the site La Corona. "On the first day," says Stuart, "we found two clear references to Great or Red Turkey, a ballplayer mentioned by name on a carved panel now in the Art Institute of Chicago." The source of this panel is unknown, but it seems to belong with a number of other unprovenienced monuments in American and European collections: the inscriptions on many of these panels include a snake-head emblem glyph, and texts begun on several of them continue on others in the set. The epigrapher Peter Mathews, now of the University of Calgary, called the undiscovered city from which the panels came Site Q. Stuart also says that the "inscriptions at La Corona also include numerous references to political events involving the snake-head site." This emblem glyph appears in texts at sites throughout the Maya Lowlands, including Calakmul, a large site 40 miles north of La Corona, in southern Campeche, Mexico. Most epigraphers think that Calakmul is the snake-head state because inscriptions there refer to it as a sovereign polity, while elsewhere it appears as a foreign state. But Calakmul has been well excavated (see A

Architecture Solar Virtual Reality Native American Archaeology
Dennis Holloway, architect, has modelled ancient Indian sites and created Quick Time Virtual Reality (QTVR) 360 degree panoramas of these.
http://www.newmex.com/architectVRe/html/VRArchaeology.html

Extractions: Since early childhood, I have been fascinated by Native American architecture. But in the place where I grew up in Shiawassee County, Michigan , I can not remember ever seeing a single artifact of the original Chippewa Indian buildings or places they builtso transformative was the modern farming to Michigan's Lower Peninsula! Still, I used to wander the forests and fields near Durand in search of some evidence that the Chippewa had been there. The school library was no helponly one book on architecture titled, "The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World". In northern New Mexico I was astonished to see so many architectural ruins of the prehistoric Indians still evident in the landscape. Seeing the ruins of these splendid buildings and villages was like seeing for the first time the cultural landscape of a continent. As a hobby, I have been studying these buildings ever sinceat every spare moment. They have become an important inspiration to me in my architecture practice here in the Southwest US.
