		Because of this research interest, I have been active in the field that is called "rock art research," and have participated in numerous conferences, often internationally, specifically those concerned with the theory and social contexts of rock art research.
		The combined interests in prehistoric art, especially that of Paleolithic Europe, and gender and feminist archaeology, have involved recent research and publication concerning the so-called "goddess" figurines, especially of ancient Europe, in collaboration with Berkeley colleague, Ruth Tringham.
		In July 1997, I was named the Class of 1960 Professor of Anthropology, an endowed chair.

		His first book, Invitation to archaeology (1967), was used extensively as a text for introductory classes in archaeology, and his popular introduction to historical archaeology, In small things forgotten (1977), remains in wide distribution and has had multiple printings.
		Deetz since 1984 held the post of Honorary Visiting Professor of Historical Archaeology at the University of Cape Town, South Africa, and from 1983 conducted research on the British colonial frontier of the Eastern Cape as part of his broader investigation of the comparative archaeology of English colonialism.
		In 1997, the Society for Historical Archaeology recognized Jim's contributions to the field by awarding him its lifetime achievement award, the J.C. Harrington Medal in Historical Archaeology.

	Jim Deetz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		My interest in historical archaeology, over the last thirty years and more, has been concerned with culture change -- how relationships perceived in the designs and forms of different sets of artifacts relate to organizing principles that tie a whole s ociety together, and how, over time, these shift.
		This unfortunate event was precipitated by the theoretical shift that has taken place in anthropology, in which explanations for behavior are no longer traced to culture.

	History
		Archaeology has been defined as the "study of the human, cultural, and social past whose goals are to narrate the sequent study of the past and to explain the events that composed it".
		It is differentiatedfrom the first two trends, because in this period, archaeology became the main concern of the explorers and travelers.
		The consideration of artifacts, as the material evidence of cultural and social behavior, focussed on the relationship between culture and the natural environment, and the attention placed on the settlement patterns of the cultures studied are characteristics of this trend.

		Compiled and updated since 1978, the EI currently comprises some 76,000 records of archaeological events, the majority encompassing excavations, evaluations and watching briefs since 1960, geophysical surveys and fieldwork funded by English Heritage and its predecessors.
		Although this resource is part of a larger dataset, a page exists to outline the history of the dataset and describe the EI fields supplied for each event to the Archaeology Data Service (which form a subset of the full computerised record held at the National Monuments Record).

	Archival Collections: Noel Morss Papers
		His interest in anthropology and archaeology was bolstered by his Chestnut Hill neighbors Dr. Hugh O'Neill Hencken and his wife Thalassa Cruso, and by summers later spent leading PM archaeological expeditions to Arizona and Utah in 1925, 1927, 1928 and 1929.
		Although Morss did not pursue this interest professionally, his work was of such caliber that he was appointed Chairman on the Visiting Committee, Harvard University Department of Anthropology and Peabody Museum in 1954; and was PM Research Fellow in Prehistory of the American Southwest 1955-60.
		Morss' long tenure in ASPR spanned his role as an early trustee from 1926 to 1953, to becoming an "ASPR member in the museum" from 1954 onwards (when the ASPR then became a part of the Department of Anthropology in accordance with its founder's will), while serving as secretary and treasurer from 1954 to 1980.
