Archaeology and the Mass Media: A Introduction
For the final take-home essay, students will select an archaeological discovery of their choice made during the last 20 years (2000-2020).

Topics should be discussed with the instructor at least 2 weeks before the due date (i.e. before March 20th).

The selected discovery has to be relevant for at least one field of archaeological research and it had to receive significant press coverage and media attention. Fields of archaeological research include human evolution, prehistoric archaeology, historic archaeology, zooarchaeology, ethnobotany, rock and cave art, indigenous heritage and the human colonization of America. These are just some areas of archaeological inquiry. Please remember that you can choose any field of archaeological research of your interest.

Final Take-Home Essay: Structure and Format
Please divide your 2-page essay in the following parts:

• Presentation: Please present the selected discovery in a short paragraph.
