http://www.iun.edu/~anthronc/darwin2006.shtml

    1B) One Dollar Used Book Sale
Where does the Anthropology Club get all the money for the awards and
scholarships?  From the semi-annual One Dollar Used Book Sale, of course.  The
next one dollar used book sale is the week of March 20 - 24 2006 in the Moraine
Center at IUN (the week we return from Spring Break).  There will be ten
thousand books of all types and all priced at one dollar each, fifty cents on
Friday.  More info on the book sale is at:
http://www.iun.edu/~anthronw/cal/2006/03-20-06.htm
If you have books to donate, there are now two book drops on campus: a newly
decorated locker-shaped one in Moraine in the NW corner of the large lobby
lounge area, and a soon-to-be-decorated one in Savannah near the bookstore.
    We need volunteers to work at the book sale.  We set up for the book sale at
noon on Sunday March 19.  This day is not open to the public, no books will be
sold, no book buyers please; it is for the students and club members and
regulars only, but they will receive one book for each hour they work.  We also
need help during the week: especially Monday early morning and all day, Tuesday
mid-day, Thursday mid-day, and (critically) Friday starting at 1 pm for the
“strike”, when we box all the remaining books and put them away for next fall.
So please stop by and help sell and sort as well as browse and buy; work an hour
and get a free book, two books an hour on Friday.   

    1C) Article discussion at Anthro Club meeting Mar 29.
The IUN Anthropology Club is having their next meeting on Wednesday March 29

    2C) Talk # 1 at Notre Dame: Archaeologies of African American Womanhood
Dr. Laurie A. Wilkie presents:  Redressing Historical Silences: Archaeologies of
African American Womanhood
 Monday, 20 March, 4 - 5 pm      213 DBRT
 The Departments of Anthropology, Africana Studies and Gender Studies proudly
present a talk by Dr. Laurie Wilkie (Associate Professor, Dept of Anthropology,
University of California, Berkeley). Wilkie is one of the leading researchers in
the archaeology of enslaved Africans and African Americans, as well as
post-bellum African Americans, in the United States and Caribbean.  Her new
book, The Archaeology of Mothering: An African-American Midwife's Tale
(Routledge 2003), recently won The Society for Historical Archaeology's James
Deetz Book Award, which recognizes one excellent book each year that is well
written and accessible to a wide audience including specialists and
non-specialists. With glowing reviews, scholars praise the book, which draws on
archaeological fieldwork and documentary research to explore 19th century ideas
about motherhood, childbirth, and women's life histories.  In this book, she
deftly weaves together ground-breaking theoretical frameworks in the archaeology
of gender and feminist archaeology, contributing to our understanding of the
rich and complex relationships of race, gender, and class in African American
communities in the late 19th century.
Following the lecture, a dinner will be held at 6:30 pm in the home of Profs.
Meredith Chesson and Ian Kuijt for interested faculty, graduate students, and
undergraduates. We welcome everyone who would like to talk with Dr. Wilkie in a
more informal atmosphere.  Please RSVP to mchesson@nd.edu, and directions will
be provided.
We look forward to seeing you at the lecture and dinner!  If you have any
questions, please contact Meredith Chesson in Anthropology (mchesson@nd.edu).

Just parents: the politics and practice of community organizing for school
change        Thursday, March 23, 2006
7:00 pm in DBRT 141
Emma Fuentes is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Teacher Education at
the University of San Francisco.  She received a Bachelor's in Anthropology from
the University of California, Santa Cruz and her MA and PhD in Education-Social
and Cultural Studies at the University of California, Berkeley.  She served as

Participatory Research (CPEPR).  Emma also served as a primary education teacher
in schools in San Francisco, California, USA, and San Cristóbal de las Casas,
Chiapas, México.
While Emma did not continue along a traditional anthropological academic path,
her work and research have continued to incorporate anthropological approaches.
 In her talk, she will describe not only the importance of critical
ethnographic methods and participant observation, but also how aspects of
anthropological education play out in cultural activism, schools, power and
public life in the USA.

    5D) Opportunities for Experienced Students on Peruvian Archaeological Project
(unadvertised) Recruiting a select group of students who have at least some
field experience and preferably speak some Spanish for our 2nd field season at
the site of El Purgatorio in the Casma Valley of Peru. This coastal site is the
proposed capital of the Casma polity and has never been previously excavated.
There are opportunities for doing Master's theses and Doctoral
dissertations with our project over the long term. The site dates to the Middle
Horizon (approx. AD600-1000) and exhibits spectacular preservation. Interested
students may email me for further information, but tentative dates are from June
7-July 30.   Personal recommendations would be greatly appreciated, as this is
not a field school and spots are limited. Many thanks!  Melissa Vogel, PhD

    5I)  Archaeology field school in Indiana:
2006 IPFW Archaeological Field School
Anthropology P405    15 May - 23 June, 2006
Indiana-Purdue University Fort Wayne will offer an archaeological field school
during the first summer session of 2006. The course carries six credit hours and
meets Monday through Friday from 8:00 am-6:00 pm. The curriculum will focus on
practical field experience, including archaeological survey, excavation
techniques, and preparation of field documents. Informal lectures on various
aspects of Indiana prehistory will provide students with a basic background in
the culture history of the region and the proper use of a variety of research
methods and field techniques.
The field school is part of the Archaeological Survey's research and education
efforts. The course will be taught by Dr. Robert G. McCullough, Dr. Michael R.
Stezewski, and Andrew A. White of the IPFW-Archaeological Survey. The 2006 field
school will contribute to two research projects focused at opposite ends of the
archaeological record. Excavations will be conducted at both a northeastern
Indiana Paleoindian site (ca. 8,000 B.C.) and a French and Wea Indian village
that was attacked and burned in 1791. Excavations at these two sites will have
different goals and utilize different methodologies, and will expose students to
a variety of archaeological techniques.
Transportation to and from the sites will be provided. Out-of-town overnight
travel will be required for the last three weeks of the field school.
The Archaeological Survey will provide meals and lodging during overnight
travel. Major field equipment and most expendable supplies also will be
furnished. Students will be responsible for tuition and the fees assessed for
six semester hours of credit and personal excavation supplies (trowel, line
level, tape measure, etc.) totaling about $35.
Class space is limited to 14 students. Completion of an application is required.
Applications are available online or from the Anthropology department office
(Kettler Hall G11A). For further information, please contact:

    5J) The University of Nebraska has an archaeology field school in Ohio:
http://www.unl.edu/anthro/afield.htm

    5K) The Archaeological Institute of America
http://www.archaeological.org/ lists 250 field schools on line, from all over
the world; it seems you have to search by country and type rather than browse
them all at once; but they also
publish a print Bulletin every year listing many field schools as well.

    5L) The National Park Service (http://www.nps.gov/) has an on-line
comprehensive list of archaeological and ethnological field work opportunities.
 It is very hard to find a list of opportunities as the site is so large; their
search returned 9000 items for “field school”, but most were from prior years.
I found some current ones at
http://www.nps.gov/search/query-meta?v%3aproject=NPS&v%3afile=viv_4EHF6S&v%3aframe=list&v%3astate=root%7cN480&id=N480&action=list&
If anyone can give advice on how to pull out the 2006 field schools, I would
appreciate it and put it in the next newsletter; Amy, are you reading this?

    5M) Archaeology on the Net (http://www.serve.com/archaeology/) lists
archaeological fieldwork opportunities all over the world along with
participation details.
