Summer 2020 will show a new approach to our typical summer field school. In adjusting to online formats, Dr. Bill Belcher will lead a hybrid online and in-person forensic archaeology field school. Four weeks of the course will be based on online content and an additional few days will be spent locally in the field, excavating faux clandestine burials. More on our archaeological field school.
