Field Trip Adventures
Archaeology Adventures: More than a field trip: it's a field school for Grades 4 and up
- At the Center for Near Eastern Archaeology at La Sierra University, Riverside.
- Come; step into our excavation pits and into the past and examine artifacts; some are thousands of years old. La Sierra University has archaeological mysteries to solve.
- When your students arrive at their Archaeology Adventure, they start by learning how archaeologists learn about the past. They use real archeological artifacts to learn the difference between observation and inference, the importance of context and about forming a hypothesis.
- Then they use tools of an archaeologist, to excavate in one of our mock archaeological sites and map their finds.
- After the excavation, they analyze what they've found and build a hypothesis about what people did in the past
- We adapt the rigor and expectations, according the grade.
- Select the archaeology site or sites your class wants to yelp excavate We can accommodate up to 34 students at each site
- The Iron Age Site The Iron Site is based on 3000 year old iron making sites and a four room house in the Middle East. The site contains reproduction and real 3000 year old artifacts, excavated by La Sierra University student and archaeologists and courtesy of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
- Roman Glass Fabrication Site The art and science of glass was brought to the Roman Empire from the Near East. Rome developed glass production into an industry. Roman Glass has been found in archaeological sites as far away as Japan. At the site students will discover the “remains” of a Rome glass fabrication operation from about 1900 years ago.
