\n\t\t\t\tThe Achill Field School provided me with a vital foundation in field work, site setup, measuring instrumentation, and laboratory digitization. The Dig-Draw-Digitize class was taught by an excellent teacher, Brian O'Hara, and it was jammed packed. The Caraun Point, Achill Island dig was true reality; we uncovered the site from large amounts of inundated sand, excavated many layers of human occupation, all while the rain and wind was an ever-present obstacle. We drew elevation plans and context sections, took Dumpy Level measurements, and digitized the drawings in the lab. On heavy weather days, Brian presented lectures on history, excavation techniques, demonstration of the latest high-tech Total Station. \u00a0This experience was a strong, authentic lesson in both archaeological field methods and the fluid management of a team as the excavation unfolds.\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tThe Dig-Draw-Digitise course successfully employed a variety of approaches, including a large component of practical experiential learning, to prepare candidates for work in archaeology. The fact that the dig at Caraun Point was a real-life licensed excavation brought authenticity to the experience. Both the Field School director and the course instructor were adept at sharing their considerable experience and knowledge, and the school facilities were good. A further positive aspect was the diversity of backgrounds among my fellow students, all of whom had valuable perspectives and knowledge to share.\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

They teach each aspect of the field experience. \u00a0I participated as a Supervisor during the summer of 2018 and really enjoyed working on a shell midden site at Caraun Point\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tI graduated from The Ohio State University in December 2016 with a degree in Anthropology geared to archaeology with GIS experience. I came to the Achill Archaeological field school as a trainee-supervisor looking for an experience larger than what the typical field school offers a student, having completed 3 other archaeological field schools and working in museum collections in the past. I needed experience to be hired as a professional, more about managing a site and the process a site goes through, then tips for excavation. Eve Campbell and Theresa McDonald have been incredibly helpful in pointing me in the right direction of how to get to the professional level in a very competitive field. The knowledge gained here in GIS, archaeological practices, ceramic identification, plan drawings, managing students and Irish history has been everything I could ask for. It is great experience for those with no experience in archaeology and those with an advanced level.\u00a0 I feel now that when I work as a professional archaeologist, the skills I have learned here will make me a valuable addition to any archaeological team and would highly recommend this field school for people at any archaeological background and skill level.\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Hi there! My name is Zo\u00eb Rierson. I\u2019m originally from southern Colorado but have just graduated with an undergraduate degree in Ancient History and Archaeology from the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Achill Field School really caught my eye because I spent most of my degree studying the Greco-Roman Mediterranean and this field school was an opportunity to look at something different, particularly, in this case, the chance to excavate something potentially much older. What also attracted me to the field school was the fact that it contrasted (both in terms of digging conditions and age of the site) with the first field school I had attended a few years ago near my home town, giving me a more diverse experience in the field. Finally, I had read and heard so many great things about the field school and I\u2019m glad to say it hasn\u2019t disappointed! <\/p>\n\n

This past week, week two, was one that I really enjoyed and it\u2019s also one that highlights some of the aspects that, I feel, makes Achill Field School such a unique and fun experience. As well as teaching the important procedures and techniques utilized in the physical excavation of a site, the field school works hard to incorporate lessons and lectures, not just on current research, but also on the wide range of tools and different approaches taken to archaeology to capture the interdisciplinary nature of the subject. This is one of the aspects of the school I really appreciate and look forward to every week, as each week we usually have a guest evening lecture. Week 2 was special in that, not only did we have two evening lectures, but we also had a guest lecturer, Dr. Patricia Murrieta-Flores, who ran a two day practical course in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The field school has a great computer lab which allowed us to do the course and practice our cartography and other GIS skills. I really enjoyed the practical as well as Dr. Murrieta-Flores\u2019 lecture on landscape archaeology and the application of GIS in archaeological settings. What was so fun was that this was an area of archaeological research I had always heard about and seen, but until now, I hadn\u2019t had the chance to try it myself. GIS has really peaked my interest and I have the field school to thank for that, because, without them, I may never have had the chance to give it a go! <\/p>\n\n

The last bit of the week we left the lab and began work again at the site. I was working in quadrant 2 and it was nice to see something that resembled a trench after working so hard the previous week at removing the peat and heather. There were four of us working in this section, cleaning and getting down to some of the more natural layers under the mound soil. There were little to no finds, rather disappointingly, other than a small piece of flint and another piece of intriguing rock. However, I feel it was made up for because the two upright stones at the top of the trench really started to stand out, and with the new third horizontal stone running between them, it looks even more convincing as an entranceway. All the while adding to the mystery of what this site actually is. <\/p>\n\n

So far Achill Field School has been an amazing learning experience for me. It\u2019s been great meeting all the wonderful people and seeing the setting that really make this school what it is. I can\u2019t say thanks enough. I\u2019m so grateful I was able to take part in such an awesome experience and can\u2019t wait to recommend it to others.<\/p>\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tAnyone lucky enough to have had a chance to participate on an archaeological project on Achill feels a profound fondness for this place, its people, and its history. My three summers on Achill have become some of my most treasured archaeological and personal experiences to date. A lot has been accomplished in these three summers, through no special ability of my own but because I have been fortunate in having a host of enthusiastic and supportive people who have gone out of their way to help my project. I am truly grateful to everyone who has played a part in this project, and there are many. I could have accomplished nothing without all of their help.\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tMy name is Zo\u00eb. I'm originally from southern Colorado but have just graduated with an undergraduate degree in Ancient History and Archaeology from the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Achill Field School really caught my eye because I spent most of my degree studying the Greco-Roman Mediterranean and this field school was an opportunity to look at something different, particularly, in this case, the chance to excavate something potentially much older. What also attracted me to the field school was the fact that it contrasted (both in terms of digging conditions and age of the site) with the first field school I had attended a few years ago near my home town, giving me a more diverse experience in the field. Finally, I had read and heard so many great things about the field school and I'm glad to say it hasn\u2019t disappointed! Achill Field School has been an amazing learning experience for me. It';s been great meeting all the wonderful people and seeing the setting that really make this school what it is. I can't say thanks enough. I'm so grateful I was able to take part in such an awesome experience and can't wait to recommend it to others.\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
