Sheep, Goats, Geep, or Shoats? An Applied Anthropological Perspective on the Nature of CRM
Abstract
This paper will present an applied anthropological perspective on the nature of applied archaeology. Emphasis is on the development of CRM in British Columbia. The perspective is that of a hybrid anthropologist/archaeologist, who combines research and cultural resource management working collaboratively with First Nations. Historically, there has been a tendency to emphasize the differences between compliance and research archaeology. Contemporary applied anthropological literature will be used in this discussion to illuminate some of the points of convergence.
