Content

The course gives an introduction to essential archaeological methods, which includes practical (excavation, stratigraphy, survey) as well as more theoretical (typology, dating, analysis) aspects. A short introduction to archaeological theory and research history is also included. The course is the necessary preparation for the field school of Near Eastern and Medieval archaeology (participation in the field-school requires a first passed exam in this course).

The course will be partly taught together with SAXO.

The teaching consists of lectures and exercises for the students. The students have to give at least one presentation of 10 min (with discussion) to be able to take the exam.
