My Opinion | My experience at Sanisera Archaeology Institution was incredible! The instructors provided me with the practical knowledge and skills needed to work effectively at an archaeological site. Using the Harris Matrix and other scientific methods, I learned how to properly conduct an archaeological excavation. In addition to learning many fundamental skills at the excavation site, I also learned how to clean, categorize, and label the different artifacts. Working at Sanisera Archaeology Institute enabled me to apply my textbook knowledge of ancient history and archaeology, to a practical setting. Based off of the artifacts found, I was able to apply my academic background to better understand the historical context of the site. |
