Field School in Mortuary Archaeology
Summer 2006
Giecz, Poland

The medieval cemetery at Giecz, Poland (11-12 centuries AD) provides a unique opportunity for students to practice bioarchaeology by learning archaeological excavation techniques and working with human osteological material. To date more than 200 burials have been excavated, and the skeletal collection includes various evidence of traumatic injury, infectious, degenerative and genetic disease, nutritional deficiency, as well as atypical lesions that have yet to be identified.

At the site students are allowed to excavate medieval burials by themselves getting hands-on experience. The professional supervision is provided by the international team of instructors from Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan and the Slavia Foundation, Lednica. Excavated bones serve as reference material in osteology courses worth 6 academic credits. The language of the Fieldschool is English.

In the summer of 2004 Giecz and the Field School became a part of a science documentary series "Ancient Clues: Modern Discoveries in Forensic Archaeology" filmed for the Discovery International which is now being broadcast in 26 countries of the world. This recognition encourages us to make our school available to the widest range of anthropology and archaeology students especially in North America and Australia.
