REU Site in Archaeology

该奖项为戴维森学院主办的考古学REU遗址提供资金。该计划向参加塞浦路斯阿蒂诺考古项目的学生提供考古研究方法方面的指导。10名学生将(1)接受调查和挖掘技术、记录保存和数据管理以及文物分析方面的指导；(2)参加考古方法和理论以及塞浦路斯文化史专家讲授的研讨会；(3)参观塞浦路斯的史前和历史遗址；(4)计划和完成一个独立的研究项目；(5)生活在阿蒂埃努，从村民那里了解现代塞浦路斯的生活。学生将掌握考古田野研究的方法，包括收集和分析数据的新的高科技方法，并对考古理论有更好的理解。这一奖项有助于基金会通过积极的本科生研究经验，继续努力吸引有才华的学生进入科学职业生涯。

This award provides funds for an REU Site in Archaeology hosted by Davidson College. The program provides instruction in archaeological research methods to students joining the Athienou Archaeological Project in Cyprus. Ten students will (1) receive instruction in survey and excavation techniques, record keeping and data management, and artifact analysis; (2) participate in seminars taught by experts on archaeological method and theory and the cultural history of Cyprus; (3) visit prehistoric and historic sites on Cyprus; (4) plan and complete an independent research project; and (5) live in Athienou and learn about life in modern Cyprus from the villagers. Students will master the methods of archaeological field research, including new `high-tech` approaches to data collection and analysis, and gain a better understanding of archaeological theory. This award contributes to the Foundation's continuing efforts to attract talented students into careers in science through active undergraduate research experiences.
