Agora Excavations (2 positions)

The ASCSA Agora Excavations are offering 2 Archaeological
Conservation Internships for the 2015 summer excavations.

The internships will give students an opportunity to treat freshly
excavated archaeological finds and to participate in an active
on-site conservation laboratory.  An introduction to the
re-treatment, preventive and long-term care of archaeological
collections will also be provided.

For more information about the excavations please visit the Agora
Excavations' website on

conservation program.  Successful candidates enrolled in North
American programs and American citizens enrolled in foreign programs

Interns who do not qualify for or do not receive a Kress award are
required to provide their own funding.  All successful candidates
are responsible for arranging their own accommodation and are
required to obtain their own medical insurance for the duration of
their internship.
