Archaeologists for Hire: An In-Class Activity

A new archaeological firm has recently been formed by Dr. Cage and Dr. Rand. Archaeologists for Hire was going to lead a series of new projects in the Marveloso Valley, focusing on reevaluating the Salado Phase (200 - 600). Unfortunately, before the two could get started they began to disagree over where exactly to excavate. As a result, the two are excavating separate sites.

You are working with Dr. Rand at MARV-39, a hilltop fortress in the middle valley. Stay focused on your work or Dr. Rand's assistant Miss Wing will hurt you. Two excavations units were put within the walled fortress. Unit I is in the fortress's main plaza, Unit II is in a large structure that may have been a residence for a chief. Unit III is located on a residential terrace located below the fortress.

Your goal will be to write a brief report summarizing your findings for Dr. Rand so that he can justify continuing excavations at the site.

Some things you might want to consider include what were the most significant aspects of the site's occupation, how the settlement changed over time and what that tells us about the people who lived there.

Your report must be a minimum of 750 words (I'm actually counting on this one), it should have a clear thesis that you support with specific examples from the material excavated.
