Introduction to Archaeology
Research Interests: Professor Green is an archaeologist, who has led major field research projects in South Carolina and Ireland. He is currently co-director of the Creadan Head Archaeological Project in Waterford Ireland, a major heritage project being conducted in collaboration with County Waterford and the Village of Dunmore East to document and exhibit the earliest prehistory of the area. In the broader context he is co-editing a volume for the World Archaeological Congress on Archaeology and Heritage as a Public Good.

Since the early 1990’s he has also studied The Anthropology of baseball as an American Institution and the role of the liberal arts in the transformation of American Higher Education. His most current teaching focuses on Climate Change, a topic he has researched since the 1970’s. All of these interests are framed by a general anthropological expertise on culture change and a commitment to preparing today’s students for their lives and careers.
Additional Information: Dr. Green has published over 40 professional articles, co-edited two major volumes on Archaeological Theory and Geographic Information Systems, and presented his work throughout the US and Europe (complete Vita available on personal website).
