In 2008 The NH Division of Historical Resources' SCRAP program launched their Historic Archaeology Survey & Mapping Program. The program's plan is to visit NH state parks over the years, engaging the support and interest of friends groups, community members and students for identifying, recording and photographing New Hampshire's dynamic history.
2009 SCRAP Field School: Location to be determined, check back soon
2008 Historic Archaeology Field School: Pisgah State Park
The 2009 State Conservation and Rescue Archaeology Program field school will continue their surveying and mapping program at another of New Hampshire’s State Parks, in addition to including shorter programs focusing on other areas of community interest around the state.
Volunteers and students will learn how to identify and map historical sites, how to conduct background research, fill out archaeological sites forms and discussions will address the ethical considerations of public archaeology.
The field school will be structured in two summer sessions, each two weeks long (exact dates to be determined). The field school operates weekdays with occasional evening lectures by invited scholars.
