Field School OverviewProject DirectorsRebecca Duggan and Dr. Bruce Fry, Parks Canada Archaeologists at the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site of Canada in partnership with the Fortress Louisbourg Association.Field School DescriptionThe Louisbourg Public Archaeology Program provides a unique opportunity for archaeology enthusiasts to join supervised digs at the Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site of Canada. The 2006 season will focus on field study at the De la Valliere property which was occupied by French, British and New Englanders between 1720 and 1758. The program will begin with two 5-day field sessions in early to mid August. During each session, a crew of 10-12 participants will excavate a portion of the De la Valliere property, learn about archaeological field techniques, and attend presentations addressing current historical research at the Fortress. Although the crew will spend much of their time with trowels in hand, there will be ample opportunity for experiencing the sites and sounds of Fortress Louisbourg and exploring the rugged Cape Breton coastline.Originally, Louisbourg was a large French settlement founded in 1713, fortified in the 1730s, besieged twice by New Englanders and the British, and finally demolished and abandoned by the British in the 1760s. Relatively untouched since the fall of the Fortress, the remnants of the colonial settlement have survived the centuries in a remarkable state of preservation. Extensive archaeological excavations and historical research in the mid-twentieth century guided partial reconstruction of the fortified town and defensive walls. Approximately 25 percent of the Fortress has been brought to life and stands as the largest reconstruction project in North America. Three decades of archaeological and archival research has produced a staggering amount of information about eighteenth century colonial life at Louisbourg, but there s much more to discover! The Louisbourg Public Archaeology Program is a great opportunity to unearth the past. Program cost: includes the 5 day session (training, fieldwork, labwork, morning presentations, field trip to siege sites), daily transportation to fortress from Visitors Center, daily lunch, free day pass to the fortress prior to program start, and 2 Period-style meals (lunch and dinner) at the Fortress = $650 CAD Field school web site: www.fortressoflouisbourg.ca/ArchaeologyE/ Field School Size: 1-15 Minimum age: 18 Is prior experience required?: No Recommended experience: Training will be provided, supervised excavation Specialized skills you will have the opportunity to learnManual Mapping/drawing (plan views, profiles): YesTraditional Photography: Yes Digital Photography: Yes Excavation Survey Techniques: Yes Interpreting stratigraphy: Yes Soils: Yes Lab work: Yes Artifact analysis: Yes Lab work on rain days?: Yes Is travel during free time restricted?: No Additional information for students: Each day will begin with an informal information session where Parks Canada historians, constume designers, archaeologists, and curatorial staff will discuss current research findings about 18th century colonial life.
