Are Archaeological Skills Going Somewhere? - YellowPete - 1st March 2009


What thoughts does anyone have for current utilization, of archaeological survey and recording skills, for direct and applicable integration into other areas of work and sources of income?

For me... it is education
(Creative Writing - Citizenship - Art - Geography and Earth Science)

and Building/Landscape survey

plus dancing like a monkey for 50p a time Smile

You'd think that Windbag, But I know of at least one person with a military and archaeological background and extensive AP experience who approached GCHQ and got nowhere.

There's always spying though, like Gertrude Bell.

There might be more scope for becoming a building surveyor, or doing those domestic energy asessments.

When you think about it, good geographic skills, strength and stamina, likes the outdoors, attention to detail, its all pretty obvious - milkman/woman !!

Akin to milkman / milkwoman, I thought about being a postie. Ticks all the right boxes as far as I am concerned. Failing that... big-brother contestant.

Seriously. Old man's rant coming up....

We wouldn't have been having this discussion 20 years ago. I remember sitting in a site hut on a particularly wet Orkney day in the early 1980s. To pass the time we decided to list all the different jobs that we had done in our time.

There wasn't a single person who had only worked in archaeology. I can remember amongst the jobs listed were social worker, turkey inseminator, oil rig worker, human tape worm analyst, sherry bottler, chauffeur, steel worker, shop worker, waitress, telephonist, soldier, rock musician etc etc. There of course is nothing wrong with having a more developed career structure in archaeology, but have archaeologists got so far from reality that we are unable to think outside of the confines of the job anymore?
