High school students come from across the country to participate in this enriching program that introduces archeological method and theory and actively engages them in the research process. Students will excavate at the Koster South site, learn artifact identification, process artifacts in the laboratory, and learn about prehistoric technologies through hands-on activities. Day activities concentrate on excavation with evenings devoted to laboratory processing and past lifeways activities.
