Archeology of an Exoduster Neighborhood: Investigations at Brown v. Board of Education NHS

Brown v. Board of Education NHS serves as a monument to the pivotal role of the 1954 landmark U.S. Supreme court case to the larger Civil Rights Movement. Archeology conducted at Brown v. Board of Education NHS provides us with more information about earlier history and occupants of this neighborhood, from the late-19th century Exoduster movement to the early-20th Century.

... Gander Academy archeology page for kids Definitions and activities included! Some teachers like to make what is known as a "box dig" for their students to learn about archeology. The teacher puts different color soils in a box and hides "artifacts" in the layers. This teaching method can work, but it has the problem of relaying the message that archeology is only about digging and not learning about the past by studying the artifacts. If you choose to do a box dig with your class be sure to talk about what happens to the artifacts after they are recovered. Archeologists generally spend three hours in the lab for every hour they spend in the field. We clean and identify the artifacts, then analyze them to determine what they tell us about people in the past. Students should recognize the fact that archeology is not only about digging, but learning about what the digging tells us about history.

1. What jobs are available for archaeologists?
Professional archaeologists work for universities, colleges, museums, the federal government, state governments, in private companies, and as consultants. They teach, conduct field investigations, analyze artifacts and sites, and publish the results of their research. The minimal educational requirement to work as a field archaeologist is a B.A. or B.S. degree with a major in anthropology or archaeology and previous field experience (usually obtained by spending a summer in an archaeological field school or participating as a volunteer, see question 5). While this is sufficient to work on an archaeological field crew, it is not sufficient to move into supervisory roles. Supervisory positions require a graduate degree, either an M.A./M.S. or a Ph.D.

Theme: Containers Before Plastic Teaching Resources Archeology Month Education News Internships ... Archeology Links
The theme for Arkansas Archeology Month 2004 is Containers Before Plastic.
So many of our containers and packages today are made of plastic, but before plastic was available, people made containers out of wood, fiber, metal, hide, glass, and clay. There were glass bottles, ceramic tureens, splint baskets, leather bags, and wood boxes among the many different kinds of containers. Exhibits can explore the different shapes of containers and the different materials of which they were made, as well as exploring the great variety of items they held. Craft classes on making early containers offer activity possibilities. Ideas for Archeology Month Activities
  • Make a display of different kinds of containers, including those made of wood, basketry, hide, clay, metal, gourds, etc. Examine how each was used.
    Sponsor a hands-on activity to make containers from various materials. Use paper (origami), weaving, carving, clay modeling, etc.

http://www.cr.nps.gov/aad/public/teach.htm
Where To Start? A great place to start learning about how to use archeology as a teaching tool is our online guide, Archeology for Interpreters: A Guide to the Resource . Created to help National Park Service interpreters discuss archeological resources with the public, educators can also use this guide to learn about incorporating archeology into their classroom toolkit. The guide answers questions about archeological methods, interpretation with archeological data, sensitivity in cultural resource matters, and encouragement of a sense of stewardship in youth. It also provides numerous links to get you started, including recommendations on parks to visit, lesson plans, and publications. Perhaps most importantly, the guide intends to help you feel comfortable using archeology as a multi-disciplinary resource. Why teach archeology and ethnography?

This is a page with a lot of movement because evolution is a never ending moving process, energetically equal as in the material dimension and to change situations out of devolution, activities are necessary to give the earth and humanity a chance to move forward into the healing process and wholeness . Those activities are multiple in their realization, based on multidimensional realities and expressions. This includes the metaphysical world, the physical world, the energetic patterns and the patterns we produce with our minds. So we distinguish several initiatives to get a holistic change for this world and all life upon her equal as in the invisible realms. All the activities and their objectives will be shortly explained here so you have a general overview. Your participation can be wherever you feel that it is right for you. Activities Lightwork with three different objectives Planetary Healing: This means producing global healing energies and sending them out into the world for troubled regions and for lessening the catastrophic moments made possible on Earth by negative inner records stored within us and the Earth, created over the years as a result of the dark ages and non loving teachings. The light work activities centered in Love for all, are what is helping our sweet planet rise up into a higher dimension of reality. Those energies produce a soft and gentle shift for the good of all life, instead of cataclysms. Impersonal Healing: Sending love and light energies out into the world, producing a peaceful, balanced energy charged with divine wisdom, strength, compassion and joy, touching all of mankind, anchoring a divine way of life and understanding into their hearts, so the transition brings changes and reformation into a new way of political, social and economical behaviors, full of respect for all life as One.

    Archeological Resources for Educators
    Resources Basics
    Archeologists and educators are realizing that the study of archeology has great potential for motivating young people, instructing them in a wide variety of skills, and inspiring in them an appreciation for the importance of preserving our nonrenewable cultural heritage. Fortunately, an increasing number of good materials are being produced for teachers who want to incorporate archeology into multidisciplinary studies. This is the beginning of a list that the Public Archeologist is compiling. At present it includes a small selection of learning guides and supplementary resources that have been examined first-hand. Most of the works cited contain references to numerous additional sources. While some of the entries deal with archeological sites in other parts of the United States and the world, with a little effort and creativity, many of the suggested activities can be adapted to local situations. If you have used materials that were helpful in your classroom or group, please share this information with the Public Archeologist (Kansas State Historical Society, 6425 SW 6

    The Friends funds, supports and implements projects and activities that further the protection of natural resources, preservation of cultural resources and enhancement of environmental awareness.
    Each fall, the Superintendent of Virgin Islands National Park submits a prioritized list of needs to the Friends' Board of Directors. Given limitations of federal funding for the Park - it typically meets only 70% of the Park's budgetary needs - Friends' support is often the only way critical natural resource protection, cultural preservation and environmental education activities can take place.
    The Friends' Board carefully considers the projects in the Park's Support Request. Those projects that are approved, along with Friends-initiated projects that the Board chooses to undertake, constitute our annual project plan. This year, 2003, we have committed to another ambitious and challenging project plan that will contribute to making Virgin Islands National Park a model of natural resource protection and cultural preservation. This year's program is projected to cost more than $400,000.
    While the Park's priority needs vary from year to year, a number of projects have been closely identified with the Friends and we seek to support them each year. These include Annaberg Cultural Presentations, Trail Maintenance, Eco-camps, the Folklife Festival and Cultural Theater Presentations. Most notable is our long-term support for Archeology in Virgin Islands National Park and these efforts are documented here in considerable depth. Click
