Apologies for cross postings

*Two day short course Announcement - Geophysics for Archaeologists and 
other Professionals
17 and 18 November 2007
Flinders University, Adelaide*

In recent years the Department of Archaeology at Flinders University has 
established a vibrant program in archaeological geophysics with ongoing 
research projects centred around historical, maritime, Indigenous and 
forensic sites.  Drawing on this experience and expertise geophysicist 
Ian Moffat and archaeologist Lynley Wallis present a two day short 
course designed to introduce participants to the variety of geophysical 
techniques available for sub-surface imaging, including ground 
penetrating radar, electromagnetic induction and magnetometer.  We 
provide introductory theoretical and hands-on training in geophysical 
techniques to ensure partipants are aware of the opportunities and 
limitations of these methods, thereby facilitating a better result when 
applied.

The course will be run over the weekend of 17 and 18 November at 
Flinders University in Adelaide, South Australia.  Further details and 
application forms can be found online at 
http://ehlt.flinders.edu.au/archaeology/fieldwork/short_courses/geophysics/index.php; 
in order to ensure the best possible access to equipment there are 
limited places available and these will be allocated on a first come basis.

For those seeking a deeper understanding of these techniques there is 
also a limited number of places available in a five day course entitled 
"Introductory Archaeological Geophysics" in the week immediately 
preceding the two day course from 12-16 November 2007; anyone who is 
interested in attending the extended version should contact Lynley 
Wallis (Lynley.Wallis at flinders.edu.au or 08 8201 3520) for more 
information.
