Archaeology Field School Location and DatesApplication Deadline2014-03-14 Start Date 2014-07-24 End Date 2014-08-31 Archaeology Field School Location Rebun Island, Japan Archaeology Field School DescriptionThe Hamanaka 2 site is a multi-component shell midden in Funadomari Bay on Rebun Island, northern Japan. A wide array of materials have been recovered from the site including ceramic, lithic, metal, and faunal remains, ranging in age from the Late Jomon through Okhotsk periods (~1500 BC - AD 1000). Human skeletal and dental remains have also been recovered at this site, although we cannot promise that more will be encountered this season. In summer 2014, the goal will be to continue the excavation of trenches started in previous seasons to help clarify the nature of spatial variation across the site, reach older cultural layers, and expand the excavations in new directions.
