Linguistics and Communication
&
Anthropological Collections and Archives
These closing two assignments are combined as they complement one another.
I. Linguistics and Communication, we work through every day, sometimes with more success than anticipated.
II. Archaeological Collections and Archives is where some of the more intriguing aspects of Anthropology are found which include working in labs (these are often processing labs that include processing bagged collections recently revealed during an excavation, cleaning them when possible, cataloguing them, inking the numeric or alpha numeric identifier on the material), collections repositories, libraries holding often a massive assorted of books, files, maps, & pictures.
