   National Park Service’s 2008 Archaeological Prospection Workshop

   The National Park Service’s 2008 workshop on archaeological prospection
   techniques entitled Current Archaeological Prospection Advances for
   Non-Destructive Investigations in the 21st Century will be held May
   19-23, 2008, at the Kelly Inn, Fargo, North Dakota.  Lodging will be at
   the Best Western Kelly Inn with the meeting room at O’Kelly Event Center
   at the Kelly Inn.  The field exercises will take place at the
   Biesterfeldt Site (a protohistoric village site on the Sheyenne River).
   Co-sponsors for the workshop include the National Park Service, the
   Archaeological Conservancy, Minnesota State University-Moorhead, and the
   State Historical Society of North Dakota.  This will be the eighteenth
   year of the workshop dedicated to the use of geophysical, aerial
   photography, and other remote sensing methods as they apply to the
   identification, evaluation, conservation, and protection of
   archaeological resources across this Nation.  The workshop will present
   lectures on the theory of operation, methodology, processing, and
   interpretation with on-hands use of the equipment in the field.  The
   workshop this year will have a special focus on the soil magnetism and
   on the effects of plowing on geophysical signatures and site integrity.
   There is a tuition charge of $475.00.  Application forms are available
   on the Midwest Archeological Center’s web page at <
