This experimental archaeology course is designed to provide students with an empirical understanding of how the archaeological record is created, subsequently altered, and interpreted. It also combines learning ancient methods of tool manufacture and use, and the creation of replicas of prehistoric technology based on archaeological discoveries and ethnographic data. In addition to providing an overview of experimental archaeology the course also builds on a foundation of knowledge learned in AN 101.
