Theoretical Frameworks in Maritime Archaeological Research

This exam assesses knowledge of key theoretical frameworks governing Maritime Archaeology. Students will articulate the significance of methodologies applied in the study of shipwrecks and coastal settlements.

Understanding diverse theoretical approaches is vital for evaluating archaeological evidence in maritime contexts. These frameworks facilitate informed interpretations of how past societies interacted with marine environments, impacting both academia and maritime heritage conservation efforts.

The exam will require students to demonstrate their understanding of theoretical concepts verbally, applying them to specific case studies or archaeological findings related to maritime contexts.

Students may also be asked to critically engage with theoretical debates present in current maritime archaeological discourse, highlighting their comprehension of evolving perspectives.
