ArcGIS in Eller House

Each year, MSA tries to host a few workshops that provide the Maritime Studies students with useful skills. In the past, the group hosted dendrochronology and Rhino3D workshops. This semester, Adam Parker took time out of his schedule to hold an ArcGIS workshop. Students who participated received an introduction to the program and practiced with georeferencing maps and plotting GPS points.

Thanks Adam for all your help!

SHA Conference 2015

"Peripheries and Boundaries" was the theme this year for the Society for Historical Archaeology annual conference.

Students and professors braved the chilly Seattle, Washington weather to represent the Program in Maritime Studies at SHA. Some of the students presented on the work they have done while attending ECU. Topics included archaeology on shipwrecks in South Africa and the Mediterranean. Students had the chance to view a wealth of presentations and network with professionals in the field, all while exploring Seattle and enjoying the food and sights.

Here's to another great SHA experience!
