View from the Shore: AMDA Collaborations at Arnold's Bay and Beyond

Summary

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Arnold's Bay Project" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

Since 2011, Advanced Metal Detecting for the Archaeologist (AMDA) has conducted over 15 trainings across the United States, providing instruction in metal detecting for professional archaeologists, THPO staff, and avocational detectorists. Courses include technical training with both classroom and field instruction, with a focus on commitment to ethical survey and archaeological best practices. AMDA programs rely on collaborations with non-profit organizations, museums, and federal agency partners to contribute to the research needs of ongoing projects. This paper highlights successful collaborations from several recent courses, including the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum's work in Fall 2021 project at Arnold’s Bay in Vermont.
