The Field Museum of Natural History would like to introduce you to one
of its most exciting programs: expeditions@fieldmuseum?. The
expeditions@fieldmuseum program, now in its second year, allows you to
follow our scientists as they conduct groundbreaking scientific
research around the world. These modern-day explorers will let you in
on the scientific discovery process through email dispatches and a
companion website that features research details, interactive
excavation site maps, expedition photographs, and video reports.
Four expeditions are planned for 2003 (see schedule below), and the
first has recently begun. We invite you to join Dr. Gary Feinman,
Chair and Curator of Mesoamerican Archaeology and Ethnology at The
Field Museum, and his team on their fifth field season reconstructing
prehispanic life on flattened terraces high above the Valley of
Oaxaca, Mexico.
This year's Oaxaca expedition runs from now until July 1 and seeks
more evidence with which to investigate the team's theory that the
hilltop site of El Palmillo was a residential center whose inhabitants
produced craft goods for exchange. The team will also be gathering
more information about the types of social, cultural, and economic
interconnections that organized and integrated life on this inhabited
hilltop.
Check the expeditions@fieldmuseum website every few days to catch up
on the latest news, photos, and interactives from the Oaxaca
expedition.
