Archaeology of Contemporary Europe (ACE) project questionnaire

The Archaeology Of Contemporary Europe (ACE) project, http://www.ace-archaeology.eu/, funded by European Union Culture Programme, is a wide ranging project researching many aspects of professional archaeological practice in a number of European countries. As part of this process ACE have produced a questionnaire which gives archaeologists the opportunity to let colleagues out with the UK know how they work, how their organisations are structured and what changes might have occurred in their practice in the last year or so.

If you are interested in participating in this phase of the project by completing a questionnaire please let the ADS know(sj523@york.ac.uk) and they will send out a questionnaire to you (in MS Word format) in the next week or two. Although the questionnaire is quite short, it asks some detailed questions relating to the number of archaeologists in an organisation, how it is funded and how many and what type of archaeological interventions it has been involved with. The ACE project is particularly interested in responses from archaeological contractors, local authority and university archaeologists.
