August 5- August 12, 2017
Pimu Catalina Island, California, USA

The goal of this one week training is to give Native cultural resource practitioners a practical, working knowledge of survey, excavation, and lab techniques enabling students to better understand how archaeology is practiced.

Students will learn about federal and state laws and processes that apply to cultural resources in the public sector, such as the California Environmental Quality Act. Guest lecturers will offer experiences into the process and provide case studies from which to learn.

The training is part of the ongoing Pimu Catalina Island Archaeological Project (PCIAP), which is working to assess and protect archaeological sites on Catalina Island.
