---Apologies for cross postings on archaeology lists--- ---commentst to: [log in to unmask] If you are an administator associated with archaeologists (students or professional) looking for field work, please post or e-mail this message to interested parties (dept. anthropology student lists, personal archaeology friends network, etc.) This list is for anyone who understands what it means to be a modern field archaeologist, and for those looking to find out. We are known as "shovelbums" by friends and family. We move from state to state (literally and figuratively) following the cash cow pipelines or saving up to go and work on those great digs, you know the ones with great archaeology, lots of satisfaction, but little pay. I learned when starting in the 80's that finding jobs has traditionally been via your personal networks of friends in the field using telephone, letters, and as of late web resources. The Shovelbums list serves to streamline and compliment that whole process, taking advantage of the nearly ubiquitous access we all have to e-mail. Now when someone knows of a project, anywhere, with the word out for hires, this is the place to announce or find it, and it comes right to your mailbox.
