The 'core of the profession' cannot lie at any particular level of responsibility or authority - it has to lie in the team, by which I mean all those who are principally involved in organising archaeological projects, getting them into the field, recovering archaeological information, extracting maximum academic value from it (=post ex) and putting it into the public domain.

Quote:quote:Where you and I are probably most differ is where we would place the core of the profession. I would position it at the digger level although at a more highly empowered position than it is currently. I suspect you position the core in the management somewhereIts a meaningless distinction, as illustrated by Unit of 1 himself (as self-employed, one-person unit, he is both management and digger).
