PLEASE SUBMIT BY 8 PM EST TIME Justify through an analysis of a news item on a recent archaeological discovery that Archaeological knowledge is always changing due to new discoveries or new analyses of existing materials. Thus archaeological knowledge (of the past) is produced in the present. (critical thinking) Present-day concerns and attitudes influence views of the past. Archaeologists should challenge any potential biases or unwarranted judgments about the past, such as ethnocentrism, presentism, racism, sexism, and classicism. (critical thinking) Summarize the newsworthy finding using appropriate archaeological terminology and concepts, and referencing the relevant archaeological information. (content) Communicate with effective writing and argumentation, in your own words. (communication) Instructions Original Post (~400 words) From online newsfeeds or actual newspapers, find a recent article (within the last 30 days–look at the byline) that relays information on a new "archaeological discovery." You can configure your newsfeed (e.g., Google News) to look for archaeology items. The article might report on a completely new find, new results of analyses on existing finds, or a re-interpretation of earlier ideas about archaeological materials, perhaps using new theoretical approaches. You must determine why it is "newsworthy," summarize the article, and discuss how it demonstrates the production of "the past" in the present. Write in essay (paragraph) form. The total length is approximately 400 words, but you may go over if needed to fulfill the assignment. Points are lost if the objectives are not addressed and if biases and stereotypes are reiterated rather than called out and challenged. You are not asked to go beyond these requirements, nor should you need to consult additional sources of information. Suggested Order of Topics Briefly summarize the new archaeological information conveyed by the article. What's new? Remember that these articles are written by journalists who cite the archaeological discoverers or their publications. Don't confuse the two. The writers may also quote from other experts not involved in the discovery, either to confirm or to challenge the interpretations being made. Comment on whether superlatives such as "the first," "the earliest," "the largest," etc. are used in the article title. These kinds of finds are more likely to be deemed newsworthy by editors as if they are more important than other factors. Next, discuss using this example, how knowledge of the past is being produced in the present. Does the new information add to or change existing archaeological knowledge? Are old ideas or interpretations being overturned? Are certain accepted "facts" now shown to be false (e.g., what was once believed to be the oldest, the earliest, the largest, etc.). Finally, analyze the article to determine whether the discovery challenges potential biases people have about the past, or affirms them? Were any such attitudes conveyed by the reporter in writing up the story, more so than by the archaeologists who reported their findings? Did the archaeologists or other commentators quoted in the story agree with or contest the interpretations on the basis of bias? Consider that such labels as "Stone Age" or "primitive" are prime examples of ethnocentrism and presentism. Avoid taking direct quotes from the article. Any quote more than "three words long" will result in the loss of credit. Summarize the information in your own words. However, do not plagiarize (copy phrases without quotes or attribution) because you will easily be found out and lose all points. Format Use the article title, centered at the top of the page, as your title. Below the title provide a URL link to the online article–this must be provided to receive any credit in the original post. Then write your essay as normal, either directly into Canvas or by writing it in document software (e.g, MS Word) and pasting it into Canvas.
