shovelbums update
R. Joe Brandon
Folks,
I want to remind you all that shovelbums was not advertised as a discussion list. This list is simply for job announcements, rumors of where jobs are, queries of where jobs might be. To be fair to the majority of the subscribers please do NOT post generic questions to this list. Multiple case offenders will be removed at my discretion for the greater good of the list. Also remember this list is designed for professional practicing (or student) archaeologists looking for gainful employment, not amateurs or pot hunters. I would also like to discourage anyone from posting "I am qualified for X" postings, these postings which would be more suitable for shovelbums_gossip, not this list. When shovelbums.com is up finally I am hoping to have a section for people to do self promotion but this list is not the medium. I do understand folks desire to do those promotions though and do encourage you to set up a dialouge on shovelbums_gossip for such discussions. Sorry if this is a bit harsh, but as the list is new now is the time to set the rules that will guide it. I do not want to begin loosing subscribers becayse this list is not what it was advertised to be. This list has a very narrow focus for a good reason. If there are any comments on this policy please drop me a note off list at shovelbums@... Thanks for your time. R. Joe Brandon --------------------------------------------------------------------- Center for Advanced Spatial Technologies (fax) 501 575-5218 Rm. 12 Ozark Hall 501 575-4277 University of Arkansas rjoe@...

Re: Pipeline Project
Jacob Hopping
I have made two very strange finds in the woods in southeastern virginia.
both of which are stones..one white, one granite..the white stone is about 4"x10" and two connecting sides of it (one length side and one width side) have been filed down so their edges are smooth..the filing also made them at a roughly right angle to one another..the granite stone is triangular, with all of the sides filed down smoothly..it's obvious these are man made and not naturally occuring they were found within 150 yards of one another are these property markers? indian implements? tombstones? or what? anybody know?

check out. I don't know any specifics about who may be hiring right now, though. In NJ, URS Greiner is a large engineering firm that hires archaeologists. They have a great reputation, both among people who work there and their clients. MAAR is located in Newark, Delaware, but I don't know much about them. People who have worked for them have seemed happy. CHRS (Cultural Heritage Research Services) is located north of Philly, about 10 minutes off the PA Turnpike. They hire field techs full time, permanently, and give benefits after a few months (rare!). There are many more companies in the area--lots in the Wash. DC metro area that you could check out, also. Again, the best idea is to call the State Historic Preservation Office and ask them to send you their list of companies. Good luck! In a message dated 5/13/99 1:51:55 AM Pacific Daylight Time,
