| Introduction
|
Now that you have gathered your evidence, evaluated
it, and organized it into a rough draft, it is time to lie back in
a hammock and think!
You have discovered a great
deal of evidence about an important civilization, and discovered
what archaeologists and scholars have to say about that
evidence. But what do you think? Can you draw new and
interesting conclusions from the evidence that weren't mentioned
in your research?
Be
careful not to depart from the evidence
you have uncovered! Your conclusions
must be based on solid facts, but perhaps
you will look at those facts in new and
unique way.

Your conclusions should be
recorded on the official Conclusion
Report, but they should also be included
in your final written narrative and media
report.
Two elements that should be
included among your conclusions are among
those you instructed to consider during
your research. But, don't limit your
conclusions to just these elements.

You have worked hard at the
dig, but now it's time to sit down at
your field desk to finalize your written
report and prepare your media
presentation!
