This capstone seminar aims to provide an opportunity for students to experience and participate in research projects that bring together various aspects of the archaeology courses taken during the student's time at Stanford. The research projects will be tailored to the individual student's specific interests and will involve individualized and independent research. In some cases, the projects will grow out of honors theses, or out of fieldwork or internships undertaken. The faculty teacher will individually supervise the projects which will be designed to incorporate theory, method as well as particular information from particular regions and time periods. The projects will involve independent problem-solving and writing up of the results.
