    Overview

    Understanding the application of archaeological approaches and methods in a heritage management context, with a focus on New Zealand and the Pacific.

    This paper explores the application of archaeological approaches and methods within a heritage context and how we can understand the diverse relationships between people, places and the past. Students will develop knowledge about the ways in which heritage is identified, managed and protected in New Zealand, the Pacific, and in a wider global context.

    ANTH 550 is a core paper in the Master of Archaeological Practice (MArchP).
