[OR_Archaeology] Article on Public Archaeology

[Susan White]

Kris Hirst, the archaeologist that writes of Archaeology for About.com, has submitted an interesting article about Public Archaeology geared towards the layperson, which might be of help for future public endeavors.

There's also some references to other articles and additional resources that might also aid in the campaign for garnering public support and educating the local communities about archaeology.

Here's the link:

Hope it's helpful, Susan
