Museum Report
Students prepare a report (of not more than 15,000 words) on the historical and archaeological significance of a coherent body of material or finds - a group of images, objects, or artefacts from a single site or of a single class or category of archaeological material from a single museum or collection. The report should be based on close study and personal inspection of the objects, as well as on all relevant published sources. This report brings familiarity with detailed archaeological object description and classification and provides practical test-case examples of interpreting ancient artefacts and images in their reconstructed ancient contexts.
Not all courses and papers are available in every year. The authoritative information about courses and papers can be found in the University's Examination Decrees and Regulations, published with changes each October; the version published in the October a student begins a course will be authoritative for the examinations which that student takes at the end of the course.
