Anthropology Fieldschools
Students concentrating in archaeology are strongly encouraged to take an archaeological field school. A good field school should offer training in both field and laboratory methods. The University of Florida offers 3 different field schools on a rotating basis: Historical St. Augustine (Dr. Kathleen Deagan), Southeastern Prehistory (Dr. Ken Sassaman), and African-American Archaeology at Kingsley Plantation (Dr. James M. Davidson). The anthropology department will also accept credit from field schools offered by other universities. The American Anthropological Association (AAA) publishes an annual listing of field schools in February.
