CRM, preferably involving Section 106 compliance projects in the
Northwest/Northern Rocky Mountains. Applicants must demonstrate ability and

interpersonal and communication skills; and be willing to travel often.
Familiarity with software such as MS Word, Access, Excel, and graphics
programs is helpful.

for six-month contracts. This position supervises crew members in the
performance of archaeological survey, excavation, or laboratory work;
collects and organizes field data; coordinates crew equipment, supplies, and
logistics. Qualifications include a B.A. degree in Anthropology/Archaeology
or related discipline; three years of experience in archaeological
fieldwork; knowledge of field methods and ability to conduct fieldwork
effectively; good leadership, interpersonal, and communication skills;
familiarity with computer word processing and data base systems; physical
