Abstract
The scientific analysis and study of ancient materials has
greatly enhanced our understanding of the past. In this course we
will undertake a survey of archaeological materials and the science
that is pertinent to the development of an understanding of such
materials. We will consider a variety of scientific methods used in
the analysis of archaeological materials, as well as work towards
developing an appreciation for how science can help in answering
questions of provenance, age, and methods of fabrication. There will
be three lecture periods and one laboratory experience each week.
