The Laboratory of Tree-ring Research at the University of Arizona is pleased to offer its 6^th^ annual pre-session course devoted entirely to the collection, analysis, and interpretation of archaeological tree-rings. Participants (undergrads, grads, professionals) will learn the most accurate and precise dating method used by archaeologists via lectures, laboratory exercises, and field work. The centerpiece of this intensive 3-week course is a *field trip* to various archaeological sites in the 4-Corners area led by Drs. Ronald H. Towner and Jeffrey S. Dean. The first week in Tucson will provide participants with a basic background in dendroarchaeology. During the third week back in Tucson, participants will prepare, crossdate, and interpret the dendroarchaeological samples collected during the field trip. http://www.ltrr.arizona.edu/summerschool/ 4 3 By appointment prior to and during the course Consent of Instructor http://garnet.ccit.arizona.edu/cgi-bin/schedule/schedule.cgi?GEOSz597Jz072z 4 Rebecca Franklin rebecca@ltrr.arizona.edu, office hours by arrangement during course. 9am-5pm daily May 14-June 1, 2007 rtowner 3 2008-02-01T16:46:16-07:00 11 2007-01-01
