Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research involved 1) collaborating with the Sainsbury Institute for the Study of Japanese Art and Culture (SISJAC) on a project titled "Global Perspectives on British Archaeology" and 2) collection, analysis, and online publication of a database on archaeological sites and reconstructed buildings. "Global Perspectives" was a public impact project introducing East Anglian archaeological sites alongside similar types of sites in Japan and other parts of the world. Assistance was provided in project conceptualization, design of displays, and event planning. Database research utilized the resources at SISJAC to collect and record information on archaeological sites developed with reconstructed buildings. This project involved archival research, communication with approximately 130 different site management authorities, and the creation of a bi-lingual website to widely distribute results.
