  • Hi Friends, Packing your tool bag for your first archaeological dig can be a bit tricky. I have split this video into two parts: Part 1 is everything you need for a research or rural job/a project where you can drive to site and back. Part 2 is the bare essentials which is good for Urban archaeology digs, Watching Briefs etc. Really for any situation where you will be travelling/moving sites a lot.
    Part 1 00:00
    Part 2 05:40
    I have created a full list on my website behindthetrowel.com If you need your toolkit ASAP, here are the Amazon links:
    Stanley (Metal) String Line Level: amzn.to/2EAYd2H
    Leaf Trowel: amzn.to/3mPZ94J
    Hand Brush: amzn.to/336N9np
    WHS Trowel - I strongly recommend you buy it from Past Horizons as its way cheaper than Amazon. However if you are time-poor :
    Wooden Handle amzn.to/2G7sE1l or a Rubber Handle (More comfortable for trainees - reduces the hand blisters) amzn.to/2S5mhOg
    My hand tape: amzn.to/3jariB1
    Hammer Penknife amzn.to/36bBVQz
    Hand pick / Micro mattock / Pick Axe amzn.to/3mWksBD
    Scale Ruler amzn.to/3jbSKi6
    6H amzn.to/3i5kROp
    Skeleton / Delicate Artefact Kit:
    My Wooden Tools: amzn.to/335Cf17 6 piece set: amzn.to/2S2cEjv
    Brushes: amzn.to/2G6Sp1A OR If no time pressure, same set for half the price. Just a week delivery time: amzn.to/3j8FZVs

    Hi Natasha, Since my last comment two years ago, I have now been on a couple of digs as a volunteer, and enjoyed them greatly. This video was in fact a great help in knowing what to take...

    Really love seeing what's in different anthropologists' travel kits. Archaeologists obviously have their tool kits and field dress, but then cultural anthropologists gotta dress for interviewing folks, primatologists dressin' for time in nature, etc.

      Indeed. When people see me walking in/out of a construction site, they do expect to meet an archaeologist haha. Glad you enjoyed the video :)

    Might be handy to add a tool belt for quick access of most frequently used tools?
    Also hydration! Especially in hot climates (or summers...they are bound to get worse and worse, aren’t they...)

    Hello Natasha, I’m really enjoying your videos. I was just wondering what does a commercial field archaeologist do? I’ve never heard of it before and I want to look into all aspects of archaeology 💕

    Surprisingly interesting Natasha, would like to see more of theses on daily lives of an archaeologist. Are there more to come on other tool bags and equipments that they use on biger sites?

    • @BehindtheTrowel
      @BehindtheTrowel  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you. I will make a note of your suggestion. We could talk about equipment used on site by other contractors to help us with our archaeological works :)

    Hi Natasha, Very interesting video, and love seeing what an archaeologist might carry in the field. Something you didn't mention as they are probably provided by the company is a GPS.. I am guessing you use survey grade units rather than the typical consumer grade handheld recreational unit?

    • @BehindtheTrowel
      @BehindtheTrowel  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Peter, great point. It varies between companies and site specifics. We either have a GIS/Survey team or we have archaeologists trained to GPS and/or Total Station on-site.
