Create an "Artifact Collection"

Uh..oh.... this site was under construction, but we had to stop because we found some cultural artifacts! Help us add more artifacts to put in an " Artifact Collection".

Digging up artifacts - All about Archaeology

Here are some links about archaeologist and their work:

• A website well done by Think Quest participants on "Digging Up the Facts about Archaeology"
• Sample of an Archaeological specimen of Papyri and the description of it
• Read an interview with Archaeologists studying the ancient pyramids.
• View a - On the Mayan Archaeology"Lost Cave People" site from Nova --complete with activities to do such as the "Assemble the Pot" Activity
• For MANY more links use Ask Jeeves for Kids and use the Keyword "Archaeology"
  

Create your Own Artifact Collection

Use the links below to find information to draw an artifact for each box on your worksheet 1.1.

Location	Beliefs	Contributions
Natural Resources	Government	Cultural Tales

When you have filled in your worksheet, and written your descriptions on worksheet 1.2, ask your teacher to scan your Artifact box into the computer. Save it as a " jpeg" or "gif" file and remember where you stored it.

Then go to My Artifact Collection in the PODs. Follow the directions there to upload your pictures and descriptions.
