This experimental class is intended to acquaint graduate students with sources and methods other than texts. The process of historical research is undergoing a revolution in which increasing amounts of evidence concerning the human past come from fields usually unfamiliar to historians, such as genetics, linguistics, archeology and archaeometry, and the paleo-environmental sciences. The class will be taught in conjunction with an undergraduate HIST 099 class and as a result will be taught, in effect, by four professors: de Luna, Degroot, McNeill, and Newfield. Moreover, workshops led by scientists and archaeologists invited from across North America will introduce their techniques, methods, and sources. We will all be learning together, undergraduates, graduate students, and professors.">
