Doing archaeology in the UK – consultants and contractors
Channel: Recording Archaeology
Date: 14/09/2016

As a part of this transatlantic session exploring the roles of  rchaeologists and professional associations, Dr Wait will discuss
the closely inter-woven roles that used to be called ‘consultants’ and ‘contractors’ but might more usefully be simply called ‘archaeologists’ as the distinctions have become blurred through time. Consideration will also be given to the roles and functions
of the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists in the day-to-day conduct of archaeological research and fieldwork by CIfA members
in the UK and elsewhere around the world.

Gerry Wait, Director Nexus Heritage and CIfA Board of Directors
